To the Tobin family, our deepest condolences. Bern was a pleasure to have known. He always had a smile, a candy, a story or some insight on an issue when it came to hockey. He truly wanted to see children, youth and adults play the game he loved. About half our team got to know Bern through playing with the St. John's Maple Leafs and know what a pleasure it was to know someone who gave so much of his time so they could enjoy the game of hockey. From us, the coaching staff, we appreciated his selfless dedication to making the game of hockey a possibility for the junior players. We will miss him but are sure he is smiling down on each rink as we continue to play, candy in hand. God Bless.
