Words cannot even begin to describe the pain that we feel right now. My dad went to join the lord Sunday. While not only a great husband of 31 years to my mom Lisa Campbell, but the best dad that my brother and I could ask for. He was our rock, someone you could always go to that would always have an answer no matter what, and my business partner with our flock of Polled Dorset Sheep for Penn View Farms. While I may have been the face of the operation, dad was always the brains.
Dad also was an enthusiastic and passionate agricultural educator for 36 years with Derry Area School District and Penns Manor Area School District. He would have been retiring with my mom effective this summer. We will love him and miss him so much.
A prayer embodies what my dad taught me and my brother:
The Legacy Prayer
There's a code among men that I'm lucky to know.
A wise man taught me, while he watched me grow.
Shake firm, lock eyes, no hat at the table.
Be reluctant to fight, but ready and able.
Treat our women like queens, they're the light of our lives.
Make a dollar when you can, but keep your eyes on the prize.
Family is everything, love and protect them to no end.
And make few men proud, to call you a friend.
I'll miss you everyday, and visit when I can.
But I'll never forget you.
The Man who me a man
Share memories & support the family
