Thomas Lee Stumpf was born March 2, 1941 at Lake City, IA. He graduated Rockwell City High School in 1959 and then attended one year of college at Mankato State. On January 13, 1962 he was united in marriage to Victoria Miller at St. Francis Catholic Church in Rockwell City. The couple made their home on the Stumpf family farm west of Rockwell City where they raised their 6 children. Tom was an avid farmer and raised livestock for 30 years before retiring to pursue his passion of selling seed and raising white tail deer. He was a faithful member of St. Francis Catholic Church and the Knights of Columbus. Tom's family was always his number one priority. He loved spending time with his children and grandchildren doing outdoor activities along with hunting and fishing. Tom never knew a stranger and had the uncanny ability to strike up a conversation with anyone he crossed paths with.

Memorials may be left to the discretion of the family.
