Toby Bernard Lent, 53, a cherished person known for his kind, loving, caring and vibrant personality, left us on October 7, 2024. Born on January 21, 1971, Toby lived a life of tremendous passion and service towards others.
He is survived by his husband, Cameron Daniels, with whom he shared 14 amazing years together; mother: Nancy Kay Snyder, father: Jack Lewis Lent; brother: Pierre Lent, sister-in-Law: Jennifer Lent, and many loved aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, friends and beloved dogs, Chanel and Tiffany.
Toby touched hundreds of lives and was loved by everyone everywhere he went. He graduated from Johnson & Wales University with his BA, lived in many states including his hometown in Coudersport, Rhode Island, Georgia, California, Tennessee, Hawaii, Maryland and South Carolina. Most recently, he was the Director of Catering at The Charleston Place in Charleston, S.C. He previously worked as the Director of Events/Catering at other luxury hotels like Shutters on the Beach/Casa Del Mar in Santa Monica, Ca., The St. Regis Hotel in Princeville, Hawaii, and The Hay Adams in Washington, D.C. Toby's magnetic persona made everyone feel welcomed, cared for and a pure joy for everyone to be around. Everyone that knew him felt like they were his best friend. He was dynamic in his profession as the Director of Catering because he instinctually and naturally made sure everyone was taken care of even before they knew they needed anything. He had a love for showtunes, the theater, country music, he was obsessed with CNN news reports, Jo Malone cologne (all scents), watching the Real Housewives of any city, suntanning on the beach, vacationing and traveling, sushi, chicken parmesan, and he loved Pepperidge Farm Coconut cake for his birthdays.
Toby proudly celebrated 25 years of sobriety. Toby even further proved to be a selfless caring individual by potentially providing life to several people by being an organ donor and giving the gift of his kidneys, liver and thyroid for the Thyroid Project. He is truly a Hero and a Godsend. The hospital gave Toby a Hero's walk down the halls when he went for his surgery to gift his organs. The entire hospital staff (doctors, nurses and admin) stood along the hallway walls as the family followed Toby's hospital bed in procession. It was a moving experience deserving of his heroism.
Visitation will be on Friday November 1 from 6 - 8 p.m. at Park United Church, 15 E. 3rd St, Coudersport, and Saturday, November 2, from 1 - 2 p.m. Services will be held at Park United Church on Saturday, November 2, at 2 p.m.- 3 p.m., with a reception to follow at Coudersport Consistory from 3 - 5 p.m.
Toby loved life and lived it to the fullest, spreading joy and light everywhere he went. He had his "Tobyisms" that will be a constant reference in many of our minds sure to bring a smile to our faces and a warming embrace in our hearts. His beacon of kindness and love will forever reside in our hearts. Toby's legacy, exemplified by his Heroism, will continue to inspire and guide us. As we grapple with the loss of Toby's presence, we find solace in knowing that his spirit lives on through the love he instilled in us.
Memorials may be made to Park United Methodist Church, 15 East 3rd Street, Couderport, PA 16915 or Last Chance Rescue www.lastchanceanimalrescue.org 8500 Bensville Rd,, Waldorf, MD 20603.

• Falcons Lose Heartbreaker, 7-6, To St. Marys Flying Dutchmen
By TOM CHITflSTER
Coach Ted Mastrogiaeomo's Flying Dutchmen of St. Marys High School invaded Coudersport Saturday and spoiled the Falcons' homecoming with a heartbreaking 7-6 victory over the Bernie Jolley-coached eleven. First Quarter St. Marys received the opening kickoff and was unable to do anything against a determined Falcon line.
Bob Magistrelli punted 35 yards and the Falcons took over. However, they were forced to return the favor as they were held to a one-yard gain in three tries before quarterback Tom Shear booted 40 yards to the Dutchmen's 16, where halfback John Lyons returned it 10 yards to the 26. Here again, the visitors failed to gain and Magistrelli punted again, this time to the Falcon 33. On the next series of plays, the Falcons picked up the first first down of the ball game as fullback Bill Thompson went off tackle for 22 yards. But this was to no avail as, with a fourth and eight situation, Shear punted; but a holding penalty against the Dutch gave the Falcons a first down on St. Marys' 31.

Failing Falcons couldn't take advantage of to penetrate any further, they were forced to punt.

Second Quarter Halfback John Lyons' 17-yard run to open the second quarter was nullified by a penalty against the Dutch.

Left end Jim Hosley and left line backer Terry Kerest crashed in to block the punt and the Falcons took over on St. Marys' 11.
From here it took only one play to score, with Shear skirting left end for the touchdown. This brought about the costliest play of the game, when a pass from Shear, intended for left end Ted Lyons, was incomplete and the extra point was no good. The first half came to an end on the next kickoff. Third Quarter The third period saw both teams battle savagely between the 30-yard lines, with neither squad posing any kind of scoring threat. Fourth Quarter Following a Shear punt early in the period, St.
Marys started its scoring drive from Coudersport's 45, following Lyons' 29-yard return of Shear's boot. Lynch gained five yards on first down, got one more on second and one on third before Magistrelli gambled on fourth and three and got the first down by a foot. Lynch got seven more to the 39, then another Dutch first down with a four-yard gallop. Posteraro got two to the 33, plus four more to the 29. Lyons went off tackle for 21 yards and a first down on the eight.
Lynch plunged to the seven, Posteraro was run out-of-bounds on the five after a two-yard gain. On the next play the Falcons were caught completely flat-footed as the Dutch pulled a neat reverse and Lyons scampered over unmolested for the TD. The next play was a big on for both sides, with St. Marys getting the nod as Magis-tielli snuck for the extra point and the Flying Dutch led, 7-6. The Falcons took the following kickoff and started what appeared to be a drive for a score, but it was thwarted by a determined St.
Marys eleven on the visitors' 18-yard line, the Dutch retaining the ball for the remaining moments of the contest and the Falcons I walked off with a heart-breaking 7-6 loss to the Dutch. St. Marys' speedy halfback John Lyons led ground gainers with 110 yards in nine carries, with big Bill Thompson leading the Falcons with 67 yards in 12 attempts. MVP awards for Saturday's contest will go to backs Bill Thompson and Tom Shear and center Terry Kerest, who, as defensive linebacker, compiled a total of 25 tackles against the Dutch runners. Honorable mentions Jack Lent and Tom Fuller.

571 Coudersport Back in 1938, I was privileged to spend considerable time with a man 88 years of age, who had done much hunting and trapping since boyhood in these hills of McKean, Potter and parts of adjacent counties, who had kept a diary of his early experiences, and, further, who retained marvelous recollection of those days particularly of the once abundant (but now extinct) passenger pigeons, which were the chief, object of our talks. i Being interested in the birds of this region, I kept detailed notes of all I could learn from him, es-. pecially since much of his local information on these pigeons was something that could not be ob-v tained in later years.
The man was J. B. Oviatt, then of Betula on Potato Creek. He was; born in December, 1850, and in 1870 ho began his diary and did his first pigeon netting. The passenger pigeon resembled our present mourning dove in shape ana particularly in the character of the long, pointed tail; but was twice the size of a mourning dove and more colorful the males hav-uig biue backs, red breasts, white bellies and white outer tail The neck feathers were highly iridescent, as demonstrated by some leathers he produced from an old quilt.
In his day, these pigeons existed in flocks of millions (absolutely no exaggeration) and nested erratically In huge pigeon "cities," located ac cording to the supply oi beecn nuts and other mast. Netting them for the city markets was a profitable occupation. The detail of information he gave me on the pigeons' habits and behaviour, on dates and places of their nestings and on how they were hunted, would fill far more than this entire page. But here is a little of what took place and what became of the pigeons. In 1870, the pigeons nested in McKean County, from the east branch of Potato Creek to the head of Colgrove Brook.
The flocks ranged far down the valleys for food, where netters, luring the pigeons close by calling, and to the ground beside their spring-nets by means of a stool pigeon on a tilting stick, took hauls of four or five do7en birds at a time. Hunters invaded the pigeon "city" to snoot the nesting birds (later to get the squabs) and disturbed them so badly that part of the nesting moved to Potter County and re-nested on Elk Run. In 1872, Mr. Oviatt saw his largest flock, which he described as a dense, oval mass coming in to drop on its new nesting ground just before dark. He was in the Pine Creek valloy, and the birds milled among themselves Just above the mourtain tops, so that the flock moved slowly, toward the Denton Hill corn try where it began to nest a day or two later.
For several days afterward, smaller flocks continued to arrive to join the nesting, probably more than doubling its size. Even so, it was a relatively small "city." A little over a week later it was shot out by gunners. The year 1885 was the last in which Mr. Oviatt found any nests, and only a few. In 1886.
he travelled all over Potter County to different places where the birds were reported to be nesting but found none. In 1889, he saw his last passenger pigeons. There was no question in Mr. Oviatt's mind as to what became of the birds. He put it this way: "For years I said the pigeons were decreasing, and most netters were afraid a law would be passed, which there should have been.
It seemed that everyone was surprised when the birds vanished and no one knew where they were; but they could not raise their young, and when the old birds died, there wasn't anything to take their place."

Wow! That would be G. Hamilton in a trench coat near the end of the third row. (My baby brother would be J. Hamilton.) Jerry Chitester is standing with crutches at the end of the second row. He suffered a broken leg during a night JV game at Otto-Eldred. I don’t know if that is why his is on crutches in this photo. I suffered a leg injury during practice. Maybe that is why I was not in uniform.
