Sheila Campbell Obituary
Sheila Lundin Campbell was born in Elmhurst, Illinois on September 20, 1954. After a grueling year long battle with cancer she died peacefully on May 16, 2016 at Swedish Hospital, Edmonds WA with family and friends by her side. She was 61.
Sheila moved to Seattle with her parents and twin sister on Seafair weekend 1955. She graduated from Shorecrest High School in 1972 & graduated from Central Washington University. At the time of her passing she was a claims adjustor for Pemco Insurance, working up to the week before she died.
Sheila is survived by her son Dustin Campbell and her adored 7 year old granddaughter Aiyana Campbell. She is also survived by her parents George S. Lundin and Elizabeth & Ivan Smith, her twin sister Lynn Phipps and other siblings Becky Fann (Mike), Martha Wilson (John), Roy Lundin (Kim) and Amy Pelly (Richard) as well as numerous nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her infant sister Kathryn.
Thanks to all who loved and cared for Sheila, especially her long time friend Dwight Esperas. We also thank her coworkers at Pemco Insurance and the 8th floor nursing staff at Swedish Edmonds for all of their support and compassion during Sheila's last year and days. We are so grateful to you all.
A memorial service is planned for Saturday, June 18, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. at Ronald United Methodist Church, 17839 Aurora Ave. North, Shoreline, WA 98133. In lieu of flowers remembrances can be made to The Salvation Army or Hopelink.

Ah,
to see
the sun again.
Even the mountains
must be lonely
in its absence.
(Written for Sheila, 1971)
It has been nearly half a century...
The world will be a lesser place without you in it.

I was saddened to hear the news of Sheila's passing. I had the pleasure of last speaking with Sheila only weeks before, and I will always remember and cherish our last conversation.
I had the pleasure of meeting Sheila through work. We remained in touch for years afterwards, and I am grateful that we did.
As one goes through life you meet many people. When you walk away from meeting someone for the first time you have many thoughts and impressions of the person. When I first met Sheila I immediately knew she was "good people". Sheila was also a lady.
To her family I am sorry for your loss but know that in her short life here she left me a better person for having met her and getting to know her. She was a friend.
May God bless her.

Sheila was such a light to many and by far the most loyal Seahawks fan in my life. The Hawks will be cheered on from heaven, no doubt!
My dear friend Sheila will be missed by all that knew her.
