Touch© is a heartfelt, entertaining account of a ten year-old boy's discovery of God's purpose for him, then formulating and executing a plan that resulted in his winning two All-American awards for fencing at Notre Dame. Todd Griffee's journey includes examples of troubleshooting obstacles that provided life lessons through his life. Touch© gives guidance-with the realization that nothing is impossible-to discover your goal, then formulate, execute, and troubleshoot your plan. The desired result is if you can see how God performed miracles in Todd's life, you can have hope God can perform miracles in your life.
Endorsement:
As I read Touch© by author Todd Griffee, I could not help but think of the quote by Mark Twain: "The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why." Griffee captures the essence of this profound statement through his personal journeys and experiences. He finds his own purpose through the unique sum of all parts which appeal to all ages and life experience levels. A well-worthy read.

Todd Griffee is a two-time All-American fencer at Notre Dame who got there through hard work, determination, and the help of several extraordinary people. His roadmap is a helpful guide on how to persevere and succeed in life. What makes this book so wonderful is that through teaching the reader his path to success, he reveals himself - plainly, directly, and honestly. It's a real gift to glimpse the soul of an author, and Todd's book gives you just that.

I worked with Todd Griffee for several years prior to my retiring. The first thing I recognized about Griffee was his work ethic, and as I got to know him, he shared with me some of his experiences at Notre Dame. Reading Touch©, put all of those achievements into perspective. Griffee always had the motto, "If I can help, I will help," and that motto lives up to itself with Griffee laying out the method for his success in a format to help others achieve their goals. Whether you are a Notre Dame fan, alumni, or subway alumni like myself, you will enjoy this glimpse into what it means to be a Notre Dame athlete.
