It is with heavy hearts that we announce that Joseph Paul Todaro II “shuffled off this mortal coil” on October 18th, 2021, after an epic battle with cancer.
He will be remembered by his loving wife Marion, his twins Michael Todaro and Julie Todaro-Lawser and their long suffering spouses, Erin Schwab and Matthew Lawser, his adoring grandchildren Brian, Sophia, Jack and Christopher, his (always humming) loving sister Jetta, his other sister Julie , and best friends Jimmy Forsythe, Vince Sabia, and Paige Pinkett, as well as a host of nieces and nephews who loved and adored him.
He was born on March 8, 1945, in San Francisco, California, to Samuel P. Todaro and Phyllis Tinsley Todaro. He was raised in Austin, Texas, and graduated from St. Edward’s University with a degree in English.
