RIP Todd Gartshore

[GregWeld]

OMG.... he was such a good guy! So willing to support our hobby... so "approachable"... and just an all around good guy. I will miss him and will now hang the hat he gave me in a place of honor in the shed.

This is truly a loss for all of us in the community - but more than anything his family! My thoughts and prayers go out to them!

My first experience with Todd & Beth is something I will never forget! They gave me the privilege and sponsored my car (Ricochet) to be on display at SEMA back in 2003. While there it was there it was selected by Mothers as one of the Top 12 of the event. I could not thank them enough. Todd and Beth treated me like family. Just some of the nicest people you will ever meet. I still make it to SEMA every year and he always remembered me and was always so friendly. A true gentleman and family man. He will be missed by everybody who had the honor of meeting him.

To Beth (his wife) and the whole Gartshore Family, my heart goes out to you all!

I have received some info about arrangements for Todd Gartshores memorial service. Here is what his son Jordan sent:

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers, we are comforted knowing that Todd was so loved.
There have been inquiry's regarding flowers for the Family, and we ask that in lieu of sending flowers please consider making a Memorial gift contribution to Victory Junction. Built in honor of Adam Petty, Victory Junction provides life changing experiences for children with chronic medical conditions or serious illnesses.

Memorial gifts can be made at the foundation website: http://www.victoryjunction.org/

Thank you again,

The Gartshore Family





I think a contribution to the Victory Junction organization is perfect...it makes a lasting difference to those who are still living, and it keep the family's living room from smelling like a funeral home.

[come on...Todd would have said that if he was here ]
