To our Dovetail family,
First and foremost, thank you.
The love, prayers, condolences, stories, and support shown over the past several weeks have meant more than words can express. We are deeply grateful to everyone who has reached out and shared memories of Todd and The Dovetail Inn.
If you knew Todd, you knew he never met a stranger. Whether it was your first visit or your hundredth, he welcomed you like an old friend. What started as a restaurant became something much more-a gathering place where conversations were shared, friendships were formed, and everyone had a seat at the table.
The Dovetail Inn was never just a business to Todd. Some people build restaurants, Todd built relationships. It was his passion, his pride, and a reflection of the way he lived his life. The food brought people through the door, but it was Todd who kept them coming back.
He poured his heart into every meal served, every customer greeted, and every relationship built within these walls.
After much thought and with heavy hearts, we have made the difficult decision to close The Dovetail Inn.
While this chapter is coming to an end, the memories created here will remain with us forever. The laughter, stories, celebrations, and friendships that filled this place are part of Todd's legacy, and that legacy will continue to live on through all of you.
To every customer, friend, employee, vendor, and member of our community who supported Todd throughout the years-thank you. You were never just patrons to him. You were family.
We will forever be grateful for the years, memories, and friendships that The Dovetail Inn brought into our lives.
Thank you for allowing us to be part of your lives and for allowing Todd to be part of yours.
While this chapter is coming to an end, we hope the memories made here never have to. So to help preserve those memories, we plan to leave this page active.
We invite anyone whose life was touched by Todd or The Dovetail Inn to share your stories, photographs, and memories in the comments. Whether it is a favorite meal, a funny conversation, a special celebration, or simply a moment that made you smile, we would love for this page to become a place where Todd’s legacy can continue to live on through the people who knew him.
The laughter, friendships, and sense of community that filled The Dovetail Inn were the things Todd cherished most. We hope those memories will continue to bring comfort and connection for years to come.
With sincere gratitude...
