To the Campbell family, only God knows why he called your love one home but rest assured that he is out of all pain now. If he was here I'm sure he would be saying don't cry for him that all is well with his soul. To the kids: I have been where you are in the loss of my dad last September but time will slowly heel your loss. If you all need anything please call on Kinkle and I. God Bless you all.

Hello Family,
I want to let you know how deeply sorry I am about Uncle Theodore. He was a great father and a wonderful person to all who knew him. I was shattered when I found out that he had died. My father (Earl Jr.) had so much love and respect in his heart for Uncle Theodore (Hot-Shot). I know in my heart that they are somewhere around God's throne embracing and sharing. This warms my heart. I know your pain. But just keep God with you during this time. He will not let you endure this alone. I Love All of you. My siblings, Jennifer, David and Pig, my Mom, Carrie and my husband, Preston, we all send our many hugs to all of you and we are here if you need us. God Bless.
