He is also survived by his best friend and business partner, Kevin Derden of Little Rock, Ark. Todd lived life to its fullest — he loved his family, never met a stranger, and traveled the world. He always had the best jokes to tell, was the life of the party, and wanted everyone to have as much fun as he was having! He loved family gatherings, playing games, hunting and fishing, and spending time with those he loved. His passion was reading the Financial Times on a daily basis and keeping up with the world of finance. He enjoyed spending time at the lake with family and friends, grilling meat and preparing his homemade salsa. He enjoyed shopping for new food items and looked forward to sharing his latest find. Todd collected pinball machines and Russian art. Todd always had a good story to tell and had a library full of music. He had a special love for his cats: Missy, Maggie, and Bella. Having been an exceptional football player in junior high and high school, Todd loved to attend Dallas Cowboy and Razorback football games.
