He was born on July 25, 1973, in Rockford, IL to Jim and Sue Hughes. Todd was an avid hunter and fisherman and took trips with the boys and his father every chance he got. He also enjoyed being a part of the Mineral Point wrestling family even after his sons graduated. Hockey, softball and baseball became a big part of his life to cheer on Elizabeth and Jamison. His greatest joy was being Papa and spoiling his grandchildren along with his great nieces and nephews. Todd retired from the military honorably with 24 years of service after being in the USMC from 1992-1999, 2005-2007(deploying to Iraq), and the Army from 2008-2022.
