Default God Speed Love2flyrc

It is with heavy hearts as we write this post. As some of you may know, Todd had been sick with pneumonia several months ago which resulted in him being hospitalized for a brief time; and during the course of that stay, a rare and extremely aggressive cancer was discovered. Initially the treatment proved to be working well, and the prognosis was very promising; but after a short time, he quit responding to treatment and he ultimately lost the battle.

We don’t only want to remember Todd as the founder and visionary of Dreamworks Model Products, but more importantly we want to remember him as the loving husband, father and friend that he was! Those who knew him knew him as being an intelligent, industrious, and innovative man, along with being a loving, caring and extremely generous person. He was also a strong-willed individual and that is what made him so successful in all his endeavors.

Todd leaves behind his wife Lisa and two children Luke & Erin along with extended family members. We pray for comfort and healing for them during this time; and we wish Todd Godspeed and blue skies…never to be forgotten!

The Dream... His Dream WILL stay alive!

This is lov2flyrc signing-off...farewell, see you in the sky!

So sad. He and I had some of the earliest Eurosport's in the US back at the turn of the century and exchanged ideas to improve them. He will be missed.

Wow.

Just a really sad loss for all of us.

My condolences and my heart felt thoughts go out to his family.

Seeing Todd and the crew at the jet meets with all the goodies in tow made all of us feel better.

Thank you for all the words of advice and the phone calls with invaluable tidbits of information. Todd, you are a gentleman among gentlemen. Godspeed.
