  Delbert ‘Buddy’ Leo Campbell, Jr., age 72, peacefully passed away on Tuesday, August 13, 2024. Born on February 5, 1952, he was a beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend. 

  Buddy is survived by his children, David Campbell and his wife, Leah of North Richland Hills, Texas; Christopher ‘Beau’ Campbell of Cleburne, Texas; Amber Campbell of Fort Worth, Texas; and Heather Lopez and her husband, Eric of Fort Worth, Texas; and six grandchildren, Ty, Taylor, Chandler, Sydney, Evan, and Luke.

  He was preceded in death by his parents, Delbert Campbell and Marita Amos Campbell, and his sister, Donna Clearwater.

  Buddy led a remarkable life filled with diverse experiences and never met a stranger. Some of these experiences included being a full-time prankster, snake charmer at rattlesnake roundups, scuba diver, work as a stuntman and old-west gunfight shows. In addition, Buddy had a passion for tinkering, welding, building dune buggies, and really anything working with his hands. Professionally, he worked as the head of maintenance at a local mall for 20+ years. His vibrant approach to life left a lasting impact on all who crossed his path.

  At this time, no services have been scheduled. May his legacy of passion and zest for life continue to inspire all those who knew and loved him.
