Mr. Stump was born Sept. 1, 1940, in Dade County, to Lee and Faye (Ford) Stump. On May 20, 1960, he married Laura Lee Ehrsam in Lamar and they made their home and reared their children in Dade County. In addition to farming, he drove trucks for Dyno Explosives and Leprino Trucking for several years.

He never met a stranger, making relationships with people his highest priority. Many will remember time spent with him, his wide smile and the twinkle in his eyes as he shared (and may have embellished just a bit) countless stories. He was a long-time member of Bethlehem Baptist Church and currently attended First Baptist Church of Golden City.
