April 25, 1968 – March 12, 2026
Todd Joseph Radosevich, 57, of Daejeon, South Korea died suddenly on March 12, 2026, of a massive heart attack in Korea.
Born April 25, 1968, in Duluth Minnesota, and named after his mother’s favorite priest, Todd soon moved to Two Harbors where he was raised and graduated in 1986. Following a year traveling abroad as an AFS student, Todd graduated from college at Drake University in Iowa, and moved back to Two Harbors to run his family’s tavern before opening Portside Pizza with his brother.
Todd was the youngest of 7 and adored his 6 older siblings, who adored him right back. He seemed to rely on their advice, experiences, and guidance as we all lived vicariously through him and his travels and adventures.
While in Two Harbors, he coached soccer and was involved in local politics. His pizza place became the go-to place for teenagers, who seemed to thrive on Todd’s welcoming and all-accepting hospitality combined with his no-nonsense-tolerated-from-teenagers attitude. Many stayed in contact with Todd as he moved to California and Korea.
In California, Todd made sure to call his brothers daily to ‘complain’ about the weather, especially during the winter months, when it was ‘only’ 70* in San Diego while we were enjoying Minnesota winters. He stayed fit by walking daily, often calling his siblings to exercise his gift of gab at the same time. He could talk with anyone, and combined his love of adventure and travel with his gift for language and skills as a teacher to get a certificate to teach English as a second language
He moved to Korea to teach English to Korean students, and while he only planned to stay for 2 years, he found his home in Daejeon.
That didn’t stop him from spending every Friday evening (Saturday morning, for him) on the Radosevich siblings’ weekly Zoom call, where the family and guests get caught up on their personal lives and also have a chance to argue a little politics and current events. His breadth of knowledge and willingness to disagree with his brothers and sisters kept the conversation lively, and he rarely missed a session. Those calls just won’t be the same without him.
Todd was preceded in death by his parents, Tony P. Radosevich and Margaret L. Radosevich; and his brother Bill Radosevich of Minneapolis. Todd is survived by his siblings, Tom Radosevich of Houston; Zora Radosevich of St. Paul; Lisa Radosevich-Craig (John); Stacy Radosevich (Paul Belsito) of Duluth; and Pete Radosevich (Tara) of Cloquet. He loved his nieces and nephews, and they loved their Uncle Todd: Hon. Bhupesh Pattni (Leah Stauber); Jitesh Pattni (Kali Knudson); Reshma Pattni (Ozzie Baron); Tony, Joe and Sam Belsito; Jami Reilly Woods (Chris Woods); Adam Reilly (Ashley Burns); Maggie Reilly (Georgio Wright); and Tommy, Patrick and Eleanor Radosevich. Todd especially loved visiting with his grand nieces and nephews, Lincoln and Jackson Pattni, Ilia and Grey Pattni, Zora and Rohan Pattni-Baron, and Gianni Wright.
A memorial service was held in Korea, on March 21, 2026. A memorial service in the U.S. will be held from 3:00 to 6:00 pm on Sunday, May 24, 2026, at Oldenberg Point pavilion in Jay Cooke State Park. Park passes will be available at the gate.
Memorials in Todd’s name to the Two Harbors Youth Soccer would be welcomed.
