Michael Steven Tompkins was born, December 17, 1949, the son of James Tompkins and Peggy (Nichols) Tompkins. Mike grew up in the College Springs area and graduated from South Page High School in 1968. He farmed with his father in his younger years and often regaled family with stories of families and farms that he either ground feed on or worked the fields. In 1972 Mike married Naomi Derry and 2 days later he started work for Morton Buildings in Clarinda. He remained employed at Morton’s for the next 28 years. He enjoyed the challenges and his crew was consecutively in the top 10 of the company. His bonus included multiple yearly trips that he and Naomi enjoyed and looked forward too.

In 1974 Mike and Naomi relocated to Newhall, Iowa so that she could attend college for her nursing degree in Cedar Rapids. In 1998 Mike purchased his first Volvo semi tractor. For the first 2 years he drove nationwide, teaming with his daughter, Erica for West Side Transport in Cedar Rapids then later continuing to drive solo. Mike worked for Unigroup/United Van Lines for the past 10 years, first as a nationwide driver and then with a dedicated route, which he enjoyed most because he could be home part of the week. In 2008 Mike and Naomi relocated from Newhall, Iowa to Clearmont, Missouri where they purchased a farm.

Mike loved his family as well as his many friends. While driving long distances he would often be on the phone for hours. Mike was a giving husband, father, grandfather and friend who would help anyone out when needed. He was a good sounding board as well as very handy with suggestions. Although away from the farm, for years before returning to the Clearmont area, he was always a farmer at heart and that was reflected in the “equipment” that he kept. He looked forward to retirement when he would be able to completely focus on farming.
