Herman H. Tompkins, 87, of Leadmine, West Virginia, passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by his family on September 8th, 2020.  He was born October 5th, 1932 in Adrian, Michigan, a son of the late Walter Tompkins and Elizabeth Ann Tompkins-Kardatzke.
He is survived by two sons, Nick Tompkins and wife Kim, Pete Tompkins and wife Merry, two daughters, Marylu Moats and husband Earl, Diana Mullenax and husband Frank, two brothers, Sherman Kardatzke and Charles Kardatzke, eleven grandchildren, Tim, John, Jeff, Christina and Michelle Tompkins, Rick and Kenneth Liller, Amanda and Jennie Tompkins, Lynne and Travis Mullenax, 17 great-grandchildren, and his loving, furry friend “Candy Sue”.
