Campbell was a large part of our athletic program at SDHS as he drove the bus to many of our games. He was our biggest cheerleader and in later years always asked me where the kids were and what were they up to. He was loved by all of us.
Ray and Linda McNichol
Our condolences to each of you in the passing of your dad. He was such a gentle man and will be remembered as always being interested in what we were doing and our families. May you hear from many who knew and respected your dad. He will long be remembered as part of the 13th of McKillop, as a neighbour and friend.

Bruce & Margaret Whitmore
Dear Doug, Deb and Dena&&single&&s family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. While you won&&single&&t necessarily remember me, I was a Hillen gal with my mother, Jessie, along with Ethel & Tennie, being one of the Dennis sisters from the 14th line. The Wey family was often part of family discussions when I was growing up. Bruce and I took over my parents farm just 2 km away so we have had lots of chats with your dad and mom over the years. They have been missed from our immediate community for some time now; but they were a fine couple who we respected very much. Our sincere sympathy to you all. Bruce & Marg
