Gentlemen,

The 352nd Fightergroup (Virtual) wishes to inform you that our former CO (V)
Todd Gehrke (Todzilla) has flown to Blue Skies.

He was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer a few months ago and remained in good spirits and fighting heart.

This was not expected at this time.

Please throw a nickel in the grass..............

To my friend, I salute you and know we will talk again soon........

With Love

Juice

Very sorry to hear.
Great guy.
I was able to hang out with Todd on a few occasions, such as the PNW conferences when they had them, and we met up at the Reno Air races a few years back.

Blue skies sir.

Sorry to hear we lost yet another long time WB's player. <nickel in the grass>
Met Todd and other 352nd members at a Dayton Mustang and Legends Airshow. A good group of folks.

It was a pleasure meeting you and squadmates in Ohio.
You will be missed.
RIP and blue skies.

Speechless. Sent him a number of magazines with the 352nd in them just this past Spring and now this. Many fond memories with Todd. One that I'll never forget and one that I never let him forget was getting the 31st members front row seats at the Mustangs and Legends Final Roundup airshow at the Rickenbacker Airport. How could you forget meeting a number of good people combined with being in the tent with the Real 352nd FG at mid field. Blue Skies my friend. We'll be meeting again in the future.

RIP Todd <S>

Seems like too many friends are leaving us. Went to air and car shows with Todd back in the day. Todd was good friend. RIP
