In Loving Memory Of Todd Alexander Todd Alexander passed away on November 22, 2014. Todd was a husband, brother, father, Mason, Shriner, and friend. He was born July 9, 1959 in Portland, OR to Harold and Maxine Alexander, brother to Keith and Julie. He is survived by his wife Susan Alexander, his five stepchildren Cassandra, Corey, Stephanie, Anthony, Rochelle, and two grandchildren. Todd was known for his lust for life, love of the outdoors, and anything shiny with a fast motor. He liked to be social, always had a smile, and laughed a lot. He was fun to be around, witty, and always ready with a comeback line. Todd had a great memory for movie lines; he loved history, and knew his family tree better than anyone. Many locals may remember Todd as the owner of Trash Pros. We will miss him greatly. 2
