| About | In Memory of Kevin Jerome Tobey December 13, 1959 - September 1, 2015 Obituary Kevin J. Tobey of Bourne and Mashpee passed away suddenly on September 1, 2015. He was (and always will be) a member of the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe. Kevin was born at Tobey Hospital, spent his childhood in Bourne and graduated from Bourne High School in 1977. The friends he made in Bourne are lifelong friends, friends he had until his final day. The day he graduated, he moved to Mashpee as he wanted to immerse himself in his Tribal Family. He found Mashpee to be vital to his life and spirit. Kevin enjoyed working. From his pre-teen years cleaning and stocking at the Hotel Bar; working at the Bourne Community Center at age thirteen; and, eventually working with his father, Elton Tobey, Sr., learning the craft of masonry. Kevin was arguably one of the best masons on Cape Cod. Kevin also enjoyed hunting and an occasional game of Scrabble. But he particularly enjoyed a game of pool and left many competitors dejected and scratching their heads. But, mostly, to sum up his life, in the words of so many: "Kevin Tobey was a good guy." . Kevin was predeceased by his parents Elton and Valerie Tobey. A memorial service was held at the Nickerson-Bourne Funeral Home 40 MacArthur Blvd., Bourne on Thursday, September 10, 2015 from noon to 3:00 PM with a repast beginning at 4:00 PM at the Mashpee Wampanoag Government/Community Center. Aho! |
