Obituary of Richard Campbell

My father, Richard "Rick" Campbell, aged 60 years, has left the world of the living to walk hand in hand with the Ancient Ones and those who passed before him. He is survived by his loving and devoted wife,Laurie Campbell; his daughter Sheila Campbell Hess and her husband Patrick and their children, Angela,Lauren and Robert; his son, Robert Campbell and his wife Jodi and children Rosie and Laurel; his siblings,Albert, Sally and Linda; and several dear friends. He was predeceased by his parents, Milton and Marian Campbell. He was a loving man. He was a real friend to those who were true to him. He was called a lot of things by a lot of people but his favorite was "Brutally Honest". He would always tell you like it was or at least the way he saw it anyway. He always had a joke or a story to tell. In the last few years of his life he found great pleasure in being part of a band. Thank you Steve Filipetti and Steve Grimes, you became like brothers to him. He loved you both very much. Per his request there will be no services. He wanted a big party where his family and friends could celebrate his life. We did that before the weather got cold and he was healthy enough to enjoy it too. We wish him growth and enlightenment through his new journey. Dad we will love and miss you forever and ever. As Above So Below. Memorial gifts may be made to Care First Hospice, 3805 Meads Creek Rd, Painted Post NY 14870.
