September 18, 1987 �" January 1, 2013
Tod Epperson died on January 1, 2013, leaving family and friends with irreparable loss, but beautiful, eternal memories. A longtime employee of Powerhouse bar in San Francisco's South of Market district, he brought smiles to all who encountered him. His love of life and celebration of friendships could be seen on dance floors throughout the city, in Dolores Park on sunny days, and at various house parties where the energy was high and the party never ended.
He is survived by his devoted partner Sid Payne; father Todd Edward Epperson and mother Lisa Ann Flynn; sisters Amanda Nicolle Epperson and Cassandra Epperson, brother Sean Epperson; and his loving family and San Framily who will never be the same without his smiles, his hugs, and his laughter. We are still searching for words which may never come.
A celebration of life will be held this Saturday, January 12 at 1 p.m. at Beatbox, 314 11th Street, San Francisco. A memorial display at 18th and Castro reflects some of the beauty Tod offered to the world. Contributions to the Memorial Fund will be used to cover final expenses and then donated to San Francisco Suicide Prevention in Tod's name.
