Obituary for David Bruce Campbell
DAVID BRUCE CAMPBELL
July 21, 1940 - September 30, 2022
Beloved oldest son of Dr. Murray Campbell (Physician) and Bettie Campbell (nee Watt). Spent first seven years at Dynevor, MB, then to Winnipeg, went to Fox Lake every summer and really enjoyed boating, canoeing and lots of fun times with cousins. His birthday is July 21, was a fun time. Many happy times with family in Minaki and train rides. Also going into caves, bonfires, etc.
Was very into Scouts. Went to England in 1955 for a Scout Jamboree. Stayed a year and worked at Liberty's of London (Fabric Store). Also to Paris.
Later worked as a teacher and also in Unemployment Office. Suffered from some chronic health problems but had a strong spiritual faith which helped. Never complained. Helped our mom a lot especially during her later later years. Took her on a lot of car rides and made her life better. Had family over to dinner and helped his sister over a rough time. Unfortunately he developed cancer and even with so much pain always did his best to do things. Very courageous.
Always loving remembered by brother Harvey (Mireille); nieces, Catherine (Dan), Amélie (Pedro) and Sara (Chris); great-nieces, Mila and Magali and Sophie; and sister Shelagh.
Last few weeks at Misericordia Health Centre. Thanks to staff.
There will be a service at St. Stephen and St. Bede Church, 99 Turner Ave., St. James.
