Ryan Thompson Obituary
Ryan was born on May 31, 1972 in Liberal, KS to Dale and Catherine Thompson (Chinn). Although he grew up in Kansas with his parents, he spent a lot of his time with his grandparents on the family farm near Quincy, MO where he spent lots of time with his cousins. As an adult, Ryan had a career as an over-the-road trucker and also worked at countless odd jobs for his friends and neighbors.
Ryan had a passion for working on vehicles of any kind. If he came across a problem he didn't already know how to fix, he would research and find the answer and fix it.
Ryan is survived by his wife, Misty Thompson and his son Zackory of the home; his son, Acelin Taylor (Nichole) of Kansas; his son Kolby Thompson (Amber) of Ohio; his grandchildren, Adara, Louden, Colson, Kaesen, and Jensyn; his grandmother Rose Chinn of Quincy, MO, his brothers Josh Thompson, and Lucas Thompson (Vanessa), sister Cassie Brower(Brett Laforest) and their families.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Vansant-Mills Funeral Home of Clinton, Missouri and are pending at this time.
To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
