Arrangements for a memorial service for Todd Doxey are expected to be announced today, said Hoover High Athletic Director Ron Lardizabal.

Doxey, 19, an outstanding athlete while at Hoover, died Sunday in a swimming accident near the campus of the University of Oregon, where he earned a football scholarship. Doxey redshirted as a freshman last fall.

Flowers and notes are being accepted at California Cremation and Burial Chapel, 5880 El Cajon Blvd., San Diego, CA 92115.

A Todd Doxey Memorial Fund to help pay for arrangements has been established at Washington Mutual, 4415 Imperial Ave., San Diego, CA 92113. Lardizabal said if contributions exceed costs, a Todd Doxey Perpetual Memorial Fund scholarship will be established to aid future athletes.
