Urban Ray Tripp was born on March 18, 1935, to Randall and May (Eggleston) Tripp in Schaller, Iowa. He attended his first eight years at country school and then attended Schaller High School. After high school, Urban enlisted into the United States Army. Following his honorable discharge, he was united in marriage to Roslyn "Dolly" Crum on July 16, 1960, at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Ida Grove, Iowa. Urban farmed all of his life with his brothers near Schaller.

Urban was a member of St. John Lutheran Church in Kiron. He loved going to antique tractor and threshermen shows. One of his favorite places to visit was the state of South Dakota; the State Fair and Laura Ingalls Wilder were places he looked forward to visiting every year. He enjoyed road trips to the ranch in Gillette, Wyoming. He always knew how to make people laugh. Above all, he cherished spending time with his grandchildren.
