Tina Marie Tompkins

Tina Marie Tompkins, a beloved daughter, mother, and friend, passed away on February 21, 2026, in her cherished hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. Born on March 4, 1971, Tina was a vibrant spirit renowned for her bubbly personality and joyful outlook on life. Her spontaneous nature and zest for adventure lit up any room, and her laughter was a soothing balm that comforted all who knew her.

Tina was particularly fond of Halloween, a holiday she celebrated with unmatched enthusiasm. The delight she derived from decorating her home and yard each year brought joy not only to her but also to the trick-or-treaters who eagerly awaited her generous offerings of candy. It was during these times that her passion for creating happy memories shone the brightest, as she welcomed neighbors and friends with warmth and happiness.

In the quiet hours of her home, Tina loved to engage in conversations with her friends over the phone, sharing laughter and stories that connected them. She found joy in the simple things, whether it was playing BINGO or exploring new recipes in the kitchen. Cooking was not just an activity for Tina; it was an expression of love—a way to gather her family together around the dining table.

Tina’s pride and joy were her children, and nothing filled her heart more than watching her daughter cheer at competitions. She celebrated their accomplishments with unyielding support and encouragement, always placing her family at the forefront of her life. Her proudest accomplishments were woven into the fabric of her family, creating a legacy built on love and devotion.

As we remember Tina, let us honor her remarkable ability to find happiness in everyday moments. She leaves behind memories that will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew her. Her spontaneity, her laughter, her nurturing spirit—these are the treasures she leaves us, urging us to live life to the fullest and embrace the joy that comes with it.

Tina will be deeply missed, but her light will continue to shine in the memories we share and the love she has instilled in us all. As we say goodbye, let us carry forth her spirit of joy and love, ensuring that her vivacious essence never fades.

She was preceded in death by her father, Gary Coffey and her fur baby, Jake. 

Tina leaves to cherish her memories, her husband, Patrick Tompkins; children, Shawn (Allie) Tompkins and Autumn Tompkins; mother, Donna Knight; brother, Mickey (Ruth) Coffey; and her fur babies, Sadie, Scarlett and Snoopy.

A celebration of Tina's life will be at a later date.
