While I knew Todd as my stylist, I came to know him as a friend and fellow South Floridian living in Georgia. I have years of monthly chats, the "what's new with you" that one develops in that relationship. As an art consultant, I appreciated his family's storied background in the art scene around Coconut Grove, the art shows, descriptions of his grandfather's unique painting style. I kept him apprised of things happening in Miami when I attended Art Basel, (did you know the Coconut Grove Playhouse is in trouble of being demolished? No! ) He always spoke of his wife Nikki and dinners they had, what movies they saw, the new pup in the family, the new car he got. We also commiserated about ailments we both shared. I will miss him terribly and my heart hurts for Nikki and family. He wasn't just a Master stylist, he was a master human. Godspeed, Todd.

Hi, todd is my brother in law and I have many memories of Todd, the one I remember the most is when he discovered I loved cooking and I loved pickles of all kinds .he taught how to make a recipe made with thin steak wrapped around a dill pickle quarter and fried in a pan with a little of the pickle juice (if I remember correctly) until the juice cooked out .. it was yummy ... but, his hands were magic because when I tried to make it they didnt taste the same ... he had that same magic for cutting hair ...

Todd was my hairdresser and friend.  He was an amazing stylist and a real sweet guy.  my condolences to his family and loving wife Nicole.

I’ve known Todd since I moved back to Marietta in 2007. He started cutting my hair at Town Center and I followed him as he transferred to the two stores at Perimeter Mall and finally to Lifetime Fitness.  I was getting haircuts every three weeks on average, so by my calculation, I have spent probably close to 200 hours of my life talking to Todd all of these years.  After that much time, you really learn a lot about a person.  Todd was a great man and I m really going to miss our talks about family, travel, and the general things that life throws at you.  We shared stories of our hardships and victories with each other and I’m feeling a huge loss now that he’s gone.  I consider myself very lucky to have known him for this long. I will miss you my friend.

Todd was my friend. We met in high school. We used to attend basketball games. He was behind the camera filming our team. I will never forget how he stepped in the middle of a situation to rescue a girl from her abusive boyfriend. Todd was thoughtful, kind, and sympathetic. He worked hard & accomplished whatever he set his mind to. He let me drive his Mustang when I was learning to stick shift. We went to prom together. He was always easy to talk to. Years later, when I bumped into him at a Regis, my toddler was in need if a haircut. Todd suggested I hold Alex on my lap while he cut his hair, which worked well. That was when I learned Todd found his soul mate, Nicky. He lit up when he told me how they met. More years passed, then there was Facebook. Both Todd and Nicky became friends and we posted glimpses into our lives. My heart breaks as I will dearly miss Todd. Thoughts and prayers are with Nicky & family.

Your eyes are a shining light.
They guide me through the darkness of these lonely nights.
Oh, those eyes of yours turn the night into day.
They make the one way streets of life go my way.  
Forever yours.

Todd was my hair guy since 2006. He managed Mia and max in perimeter mall. I was with him through Regis days and last saw him 3 weeks ago. We talked non stop during my cut, and he loved his cars, his family , Greeks and Americans and adored his wife. I remember the spider bite and the resulting problems, but he was always cheerful, loved to chat and I'm going to miss him deeply. I'm still a little bit in shock, and immediately went to lifetime to see what I could do. Such a great guy, warm and gregarious, funny and a great hairdresser. My thoughts are with his wife and family. I'm so sorry.
