Edith Campbell......your light remains!

Edith Campbell...special memories remain of this dedicated teacher, supportive colleague, and devout woman of Faith.

Edith would be amazed....some of our former students are now grandparents! Edith will always be remembered as a colleague, musician, teacher, and woman of Faith. Her light remains.

We still think of Mrs. Campbell and pray for the family. We still miss her.

"To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die" Edith Campbell lives on in so many hearts, including mine.

First Lady Edith Campbell was stern and loving. Her family became our family at Union Chapel. We are still in contact with the family. We loved her as our musician for the NJ Conference Choir. I miss her, love her, love the family, Rochelle, Jessica and William, Grand children. I pray they keep in touch. Love you always. Kitty Combs-Smith

I was able to work with the most wonderful high school choral students in Roselle, thanks to the joy of music that Edith instilled in them as middle schoolers. With gratitude to a wonderful colleague and friend. You are remembered, honored, and missed by many.

I was thinking about Mrs. Campbell just yesterday as I was listening to the old song Peace be Still. Mrs. taught our youth choir at St. Paul this song to the tune of the popular soul music entitled "Heart be Still". Thank you for the most pleasant life experiences and memories. Thinking of her makes me smile.

I love her. She was our first lady and I loved singing with her in the conference choir. Sorely missed. Kitty Combs-Smith
