On March 30, 1991, he was united in marriage to Sherie Schnell in Mishicot. The couple was blessed with three children.

Todd was a hard worker his entire life, growing up, working and enjoying the family farm. He loved farming and continued to help out his nephews on the farm. Todd also loved playing and watching all sports. He had a successful high school career, enjoying football, baseball, and basketball the most and continued to be an avid golfer. Over the years, he won multiple sports awards, and dedicated much of his time as a coach, referee, and umpire. He received several coaching awards thru the Valders School District, and touched the lives of many young athletes. In addition to sports, Todd also loved playing cards, deer hunting, cutting wood, and above all spending time with his family.
