Daniel Dean Tompkins
January 3, 1949 - September 17, 2019
Daniel Dean Tompkins, age 70, of Millsboro, DE, passed away peacefully at home, on Tuesday, September 17, 2019. Dan was raised in Bellefonte, PA and was a graduate of Penn State University. Dan started with DuPont in 1969 and retired in 2003. He took pride in his work and formed many lasting friendships which he held dear. There were many fishing trips and oyster feasts and he had fond memories of them all. He loved the beach, being on the water, fishing, and is where he retired. He enjoyed cutting grass and helping others. A man of simple faith, he found peace in nature, animals, and the mountains. Dan built many friendships and will be missed by all. Dan is survived by his second wife Patricia Tompkins; his children: Daniel J. Tompkins (Kelly) of Newark, James E. Tompkins (Donna) of New Castle, Deborah L. Tompkins of Bear; and grandchildren: Kristopher, Jessica, Joseph, James Jr., John, and Elizabeth. Services will be private. In lieu of donations, please ‘pay it forward’ and do something kind for someone in need in his memory. Please sign Mr. Tompkins’ online guestbook located on this site.
