Todd was always a happy man, him and Gary got along so well and I will never forget the time they shot up your mop bucket,and the good time we had in Wisconsin and winterfest,Iowa. Both of them would go to material stores or wherever.  May he rest in peace and they are shooting up alot of mop buckets.

I'm so sorry to hear of Todd's passing. I've been trying to think of what to say but there is so much. I met Todd Leroy  @ the Zephyr Gas Station on W. River Dr. In 1975 and was close to him and his family until I started working out of town in 1990.  We worked together, hunted, trapped, went on several fishing trips (including  Canada), and had several refreshments together. Todd was a great man and good father who loved his family.  He touched the lives of everyone he met with that great big smile. They say that when I'm gone if you can think of me and smile then I've had a good life. I can definitely do that Todd. I'll  miss you my friend. Until we meet again in the great outdoors above. 

Todd Sr. Family,
He was a great outdoorsman and supporter of the Big River Long Beards - Davenport Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation.  We did miss you at our banquet this past March, but many family members attended in your stay.  Your legacy will live on I'm sure, through your children and grand children's involvement in our JAKES program in which you supported so diligently.  Rest In Peace.

Todd and I were a two man crew at MEC for last fives years plus of our career. I feel as though I have lost a brother.
I am sorry that we never made the time to have that lunch together as we had discussed. A good man has passed, however his memory will endure!

Dear Kathy, I so did not want this to be your husband.  Please accept my most heartfelt condolences, I know he was your everything.

I was shocked to hear of Todd's passing.  I went to Blue Grass and Walcott and 4-H with Todd. He was always so kind and caring while growing up.  I often wondered what he was doing when I passed the family farm when I visited Iowa from North Carolina. 

My deepest sympathies to your family.  My fondest memories of Todd were on the softball field. His laughter and sense of humor will always be remembered. 

Remembering all the good times with good friends and neighbors.Those Longhorns were sure fun to watch. Helping Herbie and Greg and Todd with many harvests was more fun than work. Our sympathy to the family.

Dear Groharing family.  I’m so sorry for your loss.
I was a coworker of Todd’s for many years.  He was not only my coworker but also a good friend.  He will be missed.  

Kathy and family, 
I am so sorry for your loss. Todd was a wonderful man and I was blessed to have known him.  May you find comfort in your wonderful memories. God bless you all.

Todd was a devoted family man, loving his wife, children, and grandchildren.  He cared deeply for them all and without hesitation donated bone marrow to his sister, Christine.  The farm was his lifelong residence and among his many interests was traveling, 
raising exotic fowl, hunting, fishing, and reading.  His wife, parents, siblings, children, and grandchildren benefited from his kind and benevolent heart.  He was there for them all.  We admired his tireless energy and appreciated his hospitality to all who visited.  He was Master of the Grill and cooked many a tender and delicious meal enjoyed by those who were fortunate enough to partake.  Todd was a wonderful brother-in-law and we shall miss him, but know we are better off for knowing him.

One of my memories was Todd and my husband Gary shooting holed in my sister's mop bucket,and going to interest, Iowa.  And also going to Wisconsin  for a week. He was a wonderful person lived by many. So sorry for your loss.

Dear Aunt Kathy,  all the cousins and Oreo Cookie,
Our hearts go out to the whole family at this time of loss. We know how much you all loved Uncle Todd. You have been so faithful taking care of your husband and father during his time of illness. What loyalty and love! May the Lord bless you during this time with peace, comfort but mostly hope. 
We admire Uncle Todd being a hardworking provider to his family and even a devoted poodle dad to Oreo! We will never forget the day Todd married Kathy in the backyard of our parents house in NC. It was fun and included the kids. A plant about got knocked over by one of the boys and we remember that fondly! We also smile at the times we visited the Iowa farm. Uncle Todd was a man you could just hang out with and swap stories and laughs.
You all are in our prayers and thoughts.
Lots of love,
Will, Tristan, poodles Mocha and Baby Ruth

Todd will be missed by all. I am very sorry to hear of his passing. The whole family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
