On Wednesday, November 18, 2020 we said goodbye to our wonderful and spirited Mother.  You have touched many in your 90 years Mom, so know that you were loved and will be missed.  Our Mother had a strength that didn’t always shine through but she was authentic to the end.  Her feisty spirit has been passed on to her three daughters and four grandchildren.  We will always cherish the memories of who she was.

Mom often reflected on her life as the simple country girl who went on to live a somewhat fantasy life – following her husband through his navel career took her to many locations across Canada and Europe for a time.  Being able to step foot on her ancestral home of Scotland was a highlight for her.  The importance of family was with her always.

She is now dancing once again with her Father, Ernest Dewar Campbell, her Mother, Letitia Maud Foster and her eldest sister Letty.  She leaves behind her youngest sister Joan Bartels (Campbell), as well as her three daughters; Terry (Brian), Debbie (Clem) and Leslie (Stacey).  Her grandchildren; Sarah, Matthew, Katie and Shannon will remember her fondly.  Although separated by distance Mom continued to stay connected with her sister, daughters, grandchildren and her nieces and nephews.  Rest now Mom.

From one of her favourite songs . . .

. . . the pipes, the pipes are calling

From glen to glen, and down the mountain side

The summer’s gone, and all the roses falling

It’s you, it’s you must go and I must bide.
