Card of Thanks from the family of Donald Campbell Every day God gives us the strength needed to adjust to Donald's passing. However, the entire family stands in awe of the outpouring of support during this difficult time. We cannot even begin to express our sincere thanks for the love and compassion shown to us. The multitude of cards, visits, phone calls, food, and especially your prayers have carried us through this time. The expressions of sympathy at the funeral home through Gideon bibles, contributions to the cemetery fund, flowers, and other donations have been unbelievable. A special thank you goes out to Stotts and Phelps Funeral Home for their exceptional service to our family. The week we were at Summit Manor proved to be a blessing through the superb care and compassion that Donald and even the family received. We will always remember how wonderfully we were embraced. Bro. Troy Elmore and Bro. Larry Wisdom did such a tremendous job with the service and we will always cherish those tributes. We would also like to acknowledge with gratitude the staff of Westlake ER and Adair County Ambulance Service. To the entire community of family and friends, we would like to say that your contribution in any way was greatly accepted and appreciated. May God richly bless each of you. - The DONALD CAMPBELL FAMILY - Audra, Steve, Rita, Brent, Shannon, Kaylee, and Allee 2012-07-25 10:18:18 | Comments | Printable version
