Shane Todd [1966 – 2016]
We are deeply saddened by the passing of our friend Shane Todd from complications of cancer at the age of 49. Shane bravely came forward to share his story and warn others about the dangers of cigarette smoking as part of the Tips From Former SmokersTM campaign. Shane was proud of the impact of the Tips campaign and his role in its success, noting that it was the “best feeling in the world knowing I have changed lives.” Our thoughts and prayers are with Shane’s family and friends.
