Obituary of Patricia M. Tompkins
Please share a memory of Patricia to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Patricia M. Tompkins, 70, of Halfmoon, NY, passed away suddenly on Sunday, June 14, 2020 at St. Peter’s Hospital in Albany, NY.
She was born on July 13, 1949, in Albany and was the daughter of the late Thomas and Ella Hale.
Patricia is survived by her loving husband and high school sweetheart Ralph Tompkins, daughter Elyce Tompkins, son Jonathan and his wife Nicole Tompkins and their children Elena and Emily Tompkins, brother Thomas and his wife Shirley Hale, brother James and his wife Anne Hale, and brother Robert and his wife Rose Hale, and numerous nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her sister in-law Janet Hale.
Patricia graduated high school in Keveny Memorial Academy in Cohoes, NY. She and Ralph were married in Latham, NY before moving to Hawaii where Ralph was stationed in Pearl Harbor with the Navy. They returned to Wynantskill, NY where they raised their two loving children. Her children will remember fond moments with her, such as teaching Elyce to play piano and taking Jonathan camping.
She retired from NYS Department of Transportation where she grew her career for over 30 years and made many friends. She enjoyed her retirement spending time with her family and friends, tending to her beautiful gardens, playing with her kittens, and traveling with her husband vacationing in tropical locations. She was overjoyed to have held new born Emily, and Elena will cherish memories of playing with “Nammy” in the park. She enjoyed being with family and friends and working with the elderly at the Halfmoon Senior Center. Her generous heart touched the lives of many, and she will be missed greatly.
Patricia and Ralph attended Loudonville Community Church and Grace Fellowship Church in Latham, NY. Her caring and compassionate soul rests in heaven with our Lord Jesus Christ. She will be remembered for her heartwarming smile and charming stories.
