Kenneth Milton Campbell

Kenneth Milton Campbell was born September 13, 1956 in Los Angeles, CA and died on June 13, 2024 at Methodist Charlton Medical Center in Dallas. He had resided in DeSoto, TX since September, 2001. He's preceded in death by his father, Charles Milton Campbell; his mother, Darlene Marcia Ercanbrack and his brother, Orran Thane Campbell. He's survived by his brothers Lance Campbell and wife Monique, Trent Campbell and wife Jenny, and Charles Campbell.
Kenneth was a very shy and private individual, but he did have a very tight circle of people that he cared about, and in that circle he was loyal to a fault. If you were a part of it, you must have been very special to him. To those of us that did know him found him to be, shall we say, an acquired taste.
Kenneth was very intelligent, and he aspired to explore new ideas and concepts. He had a way of expressing his thoughts and ideas as if he had a brush in hand, painting the picture. He had many gifts and talents, some of those include photography and cooking. Though he would argue that if you told him so. He talked about being a teacher, probably history as he loved the subject.
Now, his love for cars. He had several car magazines and books throughout the years; Automobile, Car and Driver and Motor Trend to name a few. To hear him talk, you would think he was a connoisseur of cars... Too bad his collection didn't reflect that. But the ones he had were fun to drive on those moonlit drives in the mountains and curvy roads, as he often did.
He HATED blue jeans and sneakers. He had two types of attire; business, and business casual. If he didn't wear a suit, it was at least a nice shirt and slacks. You put a fedora on his head, and he's straight out of the 1940's. Trent always told him he's in the wrong decade.
We all have our stories about Kenneth. Some that may not have been funny at the time, seem to give us a chuckle at the memory of it. "You crushed my chips!"... Lance can tell you all about that one.
If you were given the opportunity to meet Kenneth, it would be understandable if you weren't sure how to take him, as he could come off as a bit gruff. As for us that knew and loved him, he was always there when you needed him most. He was charitable, never wanting recognition for it. His thought was, be there to meet the need, not the attention.
Kenneth had a dry sense of humor, but a silly joke could give him a chuckle. Us brothers could talk for hours and laugh at the silliness going on around us. You could see the close friendship and brotherly bond he had with his brother Orran, and especially with his brother Lance. Though he never married, nor had any children, he was a great father figure to his brother Trent.
There are many great stories to be shared about this wonderful man, but time would not permit it. From Lance and Trent; Kenneth, you were and even now an inspiration to many. We love you, and you will be greatly missed.
