The Ageless Col. Todd

I was happy to see Col. Todd at the 2006 homecoming. I must admit that I did not expect to find him around. At the breakfast, I was very surprised when I heard his named called out and he stood up. When I attended HMA during 1974-76, Col. Todd must have been at least in his late 60s, so I guess he's nearing 100 or has already reached it. In any case, he seemed very well indeed.

I am glad that some things haven't changed. I still recall seeing Col. Todd walking with his German shepherd (... anyone remember the dog's name?) as if it were yesterday. He was always very distinguished looking and always in a pleasant mood.
