Comments: My prayers go out to Mr Todds wife and family. Reading the tributes, an hearing about the officer that was Michael Todd, reminds me of why I joined and inspires me to be the kind of leader and officer this man was. His death is not in vain.Even in death He inspires many. God bless you and your family. I really wish we'd had a chance to have you here as Commissioner.

Name: Ewen Wilson
Town: Essex
Comments: Back a good few years and despite being extremely busy as a Ch/Supt at HQ Mr Todd took the effort to spend some time speaking to me and passing advice on leadership and development. At the time I was a constable on shift and had not had the priveledge of meeting Mr Todd before. Such was the measure of this man - he made you feel valued and without question everyone wanted to work for him. As for the advice he gave me - it was priceless and has stood me in great stead. Best wishes to his family and may he rest in peace. Policing has lost a great leader.

In my day to day work as a supplier of Police uniforms, I had the pleasure of meeting Michael at an exhibition and found him to be charismatic and approachable. I have cause to speak to people in many Police roles aross the UK and everyone I have spoken to both before and since his passing have had great things to say about Michael; all comenting on his enthusiasm and drive. He will surely be missed, but his efforts to make Manchester a safer place to visit or live in wil not be in vain.

Name: Muriel Taylor
Town: Oldham
Comments: I had the privilege and great pleasure to meet Mike Todd with a party of young people, at the celebration of the Make A Difference Competition in Manchester. He had a very warm personality and an easy rapport with everyone who met him. My abiding memory of him is seeing him singing and dancing to the Village People's song 'Y.M.C.A.' This included all the actions - much to the delight of my group of teenagers. The Police Service needs more officers like him. May he rest in peace.

Name: Linda Van Den Hende
Town: London
Comments: I worked with Michael when he was the DAC in the HR department of the Met when he and I were both members of the Senior management team. Michael was a totally professional officer, dedicated to being a police officer. A job he obviously loved. HR was a new area for him and he was never afraid to ask questions of those who had more experience in that field. He was a valued colleague whose sense of humour was often used to defuse overly serious discussions. His sense of fairness shone through in his dealing with complex situations where a common sense appraoch was needed. Although a senior police officer he listened to and respected the contribution of all staff whatever their role in the organisation. I was deeply saddened by his untimely death and my thoughts are with his family. Regardless of some of the more sensational stories about him, he was a dedicated police officer whose contribution to national policing cannot be denied.
