I am so sorry to hear this news. Sending the Tobin family my most sincere condolences. I remember all the first aid and ski training with Bill and Sean, and Dave Stenger close behind : )
Always enjoyed Bill and Karin at Patrol get togethers. He will be missed.
Bill was a great Euchre player. It was so nice to have gotten to know him doing one of his favorite things. We are so sorry for your loss Carin.
A candle was lit for William “Bill” T. Tobin.

So sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. Bill was an avid skier and served for many years as a member of the Swain Ski Patrol. I enjoyed skiing with “Wild Bill” on our assigned Monday nights. He was a great first aider and dedicated patroller. We had many good times on the slopes and at Keuka Lake during the summer months. He will be missed at Judd and Carole’s summer events. My thoughts and prayers to Carin and the rest of the family. RIP my friend!
