She had always been a religious person and had a close relationship with the Lord. She always saw the good in everyone she met and would quickly strike up a conversation with anyone. She was known for her amazing meals she would prepare for the farm workers and the family. She loved taking care of people, as she did so her whole life. She was always a spunky little woman who loved her daughter and granddaughter with everything she had.

Woodson (Nov. 6, 1990); four sisters, Josephine Johnson (Walter “Bud”), Callie Lawhorne (Thurman), Virginia Coleman (Hampton), and Shirley Bond (Emile “Jake”); and four brothers, Percy Campbell, James “Gilmore” Campbell, Wendell “Hollis” Campbell (Mildred), Joe “Harold” Campbell (Janice).
