Walter 'Whitey' Subjin

Walter “Whitey” Subjin of Dingmans Ferry, Pa., passed from this life on Wednesday, Oct. 17, 2018. He was 75.
Son of the late Anthony Walter and Olga Karp Subjin, he was born April 14, 1943, in Queens, N.Y. He was married to Sharon Reimer Subjin for 38 years.
As a 40-year resident of Dingmans Ferry, he was involved in many community services and was an active supporter of local projects. He was owner and operator of Pocono Disposal Company for 30 years, a business he started with a pick-up truck and a handful of loyal customers. He was a charter member of the Dingmans Ferry Lions Club and a member of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church.
Whitey was a local legend. A friend to all who met him, he had a charming and memorable personality. He was humorous, spontaneous, a loyal friend, had a contagious smile and would go out of his way to help someone. He enjoyed camping, fishing, driving his 1970 Pontiac Catalina, bluegrass music, tailgating, antique machinery, steam locomotives, and was a collector of all things.
Survivors include his wife, Sharon; children, “His Four Aces” Annette (Don), Anthony (Adrianne), Amanda (Geoffrey), and Amber (Dino); six grandchildren; brother, William (Rita); two brothers-in law; one sister-in-law; and several nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his sister, Sally, in August 2018.
A memorial service was held at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Dingmans Ferry, on Oct. 27 with the Rev. Niels Nielsen officiating.
