William "Bill" Tobin passed away suddenly on March 22, 2026, at the age of 76.

Bill was born to E.S. Tobin and Grovaline Hodgens on August 27, 1949, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. He grew up in Oklahoma City attending John Carroll Grade School and graduated from Harding High School in 1967. After graduation Bill proudly served his country in the United States Army before returning to Oklahoma City.

In 1972, he married Becky (Ward) Tobin. Together, they had two children Vincent and Peter. Bill was a 25-year veteran of the Oklahoma City Fire Department where he retired as a Lieutenant. He was also a master carpenter, creating with his hands and leaving behind work that will stand for years to come.

In 1981, Bill made Guthrie his home, where he continued to build a life centered around family, faith, and craftsmanship. He attended St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Stillwater.

Bill loved carpentry, fishing, snow skiing, and most of all, spending time with his family and friends. He had a way of connecting with people, and to those who understand, he was "a great interviewer."

He is survived by his wife, Becky of 53 years; his children, Vincent (Michelle) and Peter (Jennie); his brothers, Mike (Annie) and John (Teresa); and his beloved grandchildren, Emilie, Maggie, Connor, and Hannah, along with numerous extended family members and friends who will miss him dearly.

He was preceded in death by his parents E.S. and Grovaline and his siblings, Eddie Tobin and Kathy Jones.
