Our beloved fellow football official, Tod Reese, has recently been  diagnosed with a very aggressive form of pancreatic cancer.   Tod is a dedicated adoring father of 2 daughters, Delaney and Kaitlin.  He is a loving and caring husband to his wife, Holly.   Tod is undergoing every treatment possible to help in his fight against cancer.  As you might imagine this has taken a heavy burden for him and his family both emotionally and financially.

In our efforts to assist Tod and his family with these challenges we are asking that you dig deep into your heart and say some prayers for Tod and his  amazing family as they work through this period on their life.  We also kindly request that you find it within yourself to offer a donation of any size to  Tod and his family through these trying times via this GoFundMe page.  Any and all amounts are very much welcomed by the family and they send their appreciation in advance for your prayers and thoughts. 

Tod has helped mentor and advocate for football officials for over 40 years.  He has been a clinician, a fellow on-field official, and has inspired many to achieve the highest levels of football officiating which includes some officials that work today in the NFL.

As great as Tod is as a football official during the game he is an even better teacher of how to be an exceptional human being.  I was honored to have him on my crew for my first year as a Referee. He made me better and the crew better each and every game we had both on and off the football field.

We kindly ask that you help us raise money to offset the financial obligations in Tod's battle against this horrific disease.  With your help, love and prayers we will see Tod working another college football game in the near future.  And we can expect he'll be there along our side making everyone else around him just that much more better and kinder!
