James Vincent Tobin

Truly saddened to hear of JIm's passing. He was the only mechanic i'd ever let work on my outboard. Was looking for his new contact info and came across this awful news. He was incredibly talented and patient.

Charlene and family, I am so sorry to hear. Thinking of you all.

Jim was a great friend and shipmate! We served together in the Philippines, aboard the U.S.S. Tomaqua YTB 797. He and I were both Engineman.
Rest in peace Jim, we have the watch!

It is so hard to believe my brother is gone. Im sure his family feels the same.I served with Jimmy (aka Jimbo) in 1984-85 at NAVSTA Subic Bay Service Craft Tugs and then again At Seal Team 5 NAB Coronado 1st LT, 1997-98. So glad I was able to see him once again at his home on Thanksgiving a few years back. RIP my brother until we meet again. Gone too soon. Fair winds and following seas shipmate...

I love you, Aunt Char. I only wish I was there right now to tell you in person. -Trav

Dearest Charlene,
As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
We will always be here to love and support you during this difficult time!
Hugs and kisses, Aunt Mare and Uncle Den

I am so very sorry for your loss. I have been there and no that it's life altering and absolutely devastating. May God bless you with the courage and strength to face the days ahead. Keeping you and your family in my prayers.

Char- I am at a loss of words and still can't believe. I will forever miss the dailey SUP when I would pull into the marina, or when he came to my shop to help me out with something. He sure had a way about him, used to love wondering what was Jimmy going to say or do next. He always had my back and would do anything for me.
Everyone at Mad Masons will miss him dearly.

Char. My heart breaks for you. My vivid memory of Jim playing with Brielle at your house. Chasing after her and she would giggle and giggle at him. He had such a kind heart and a beautiful soul. He will be missed by so many people. Cherish your memories and remember his love. I am here if you need anything.

Hi Char - I'm so very, very sorry for your loss. What a beautiful tribute to your husband who was an amazing man. I wish I had the chance to meet him.
The deep bond and love you shared comes through clearly in your words. My heart breaks knowing you are suffering but I know you have a great support system with your parents and family. Please know you're all in my thoughts and I'm sending you all my love. Amy (Masterson) Drangula
