She is survived by her sons, Allen Campbell (Lori), Johnathan Campbell, Thomas Campbell (Michelle); daughter-in-law, Christie Force; two granddaughters raised in their home, Brittney Campbell and Rebecca Stone-Hawkins (Jake). Additionally, they had multiple other grandchildren, Barron Campbell, Mackey Campbell, John Campbell Jr, Abrielle Force, Lauren Campbell, Lauren Griffin, Isabella Campbell, and "little" Leland Campbell; as well as four great grandchildren. Roxie was a lifelong friend to everyone she knew, including her best friend, Diane League, and lifelong neighbors, Billy and Shannon Burns. Roxie will be greatly missed by her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, other family members and friends.
In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her beloved brother, Hogan Chapman, brother-in-law Bill Saxon, and youngest son, Billy Dean Campbell.
