God finally answered Vince’s prayers and to
his delight, God has taken him home to be
with him. Sad to see him go is his partner in life Gwendolyn Joyce Myers,
children of his heart Patricia MG Frandsen, Wanda Joy and her husband Brett
Christensen, Vincent JC and his wife Sandra Tobin.
He was the proud Poppa of Sasha Frandsen
and her husband Mark Hewitt, Craig Frandsen;
Brendan, Jessica and Emily Christensen; and Raina Tobin. Surviving him is his brother Edmund
Tobin, brother-in-law Calvin Williams and
numerous nieces and nephews. He is predeceased
by his parents Lambert Joseph Tobin and
Mary Rita Donnelly, his sisters Marie Hughes,
Linda Williams, brothers Walter, Harold Tobin
and nephew Ronald Hughes, his granddaughter
Angel Frandsen, his great-grandchildren Jayden,
Brooklyn and Halena. Vince was especially close
to his Myers in laws: Bob and Sandra, Jim and
Linda, John and Judy Myers, Sheila and Philip
Palmer, Sandra and Randy Joyce and all their
children. Missing him too will be all his Christian
brothers and sisters at the Olivet Baptist Church
in Westport. Vince was a good father, an excellent
husband and he provided a stable home for
his family. In addition he was an avid hunter and
fisherman as attested to by his son and all his inlaws.
Many are the memories which they share.
Midlife Vince was a member of the Westport Volunteer
firemen, a member of the Westport Snowmobile
Club and he contributed to the stocking of
fish in the surrounding lakes. He worked with his
father-in-law, Howard Myers, building houses in
the area, they built our own house and we still
live in it. He fell into poor health, some thirty-six
years ago with a massive heart attack, he has really
been struggling in the last many years with
all kinds of other medical issues. Medically, life
was not easy for him. Arrangements have been
entrusted to the Lyons Funeral Home in Westport,
Ontario. Cremation was conducted at the
Elmwood Crematorium in Corbyville, Ontario.
A Celebration of Life service will be held in the
Olivet Baptist Church in Westport on January 7,
2018. Visitation will take place between 1 and 3
and the service will commence at 3. Lunch will
be served following this. In lieu of flowers, donations
to the Olivet Baptist Church building fund
would be appreciated.
