Mr. Mabin was a Navy Veteran and retired from the Norandal plant in Newport. He was a member of the Oak Grove Missionary Baptist Church where he enjoyed attending Sunday school and Bible Study. Tommie was so faithful to the church that it was often stated that if anyone should have a key to the church; it should have been him because he was always the first one there on Sunday morning. He enjoyed reading his bible and was known for being the king of dominoes. Cooking and Barbecuing were some of his favorite past times. He also loved to dance.
He is preceded in death by his parents, his brother, Robert Mabin, and several aunts and uncles.
