In 1959 my family moved into our new home across the street from the Campbells. We became good friends from that moment on. It was a true pleasure to visit with Mrs. Campbell wherever we crossed paths through the years. She was always so upbeat and so much a lady. In adulthood I could never get used to calling her Francis, partly due to our upbringing but mostly due to her. She will forever be Mrs. Campbell. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jan and Justin at this time and our heads are filled with wonderful memories of times past.

Frances was such a delightful person. Her passing is a deep loss to many. I am so happy though to have had her friendship which I consider such a gain. I will remember her as an intelligent and inquisitive lady. My prayer for all of you who held her dear is that you will find peace and comfort in God's promises. Debby Parker

Jan and Justin, Aunt Frances leaves a special legacy to all members of the Campbell family. She will always be remembered when using her recipe for homemade Peach Ice Cream and Peach Cobbler. Her infectious giggle and twinkling eyes are also unforgettable. We will especially miss her at gatherings of the "Campbell Clan."
