A FRIEND, A MENTOR

August 23, 2017

I was stationed at Fort Lewis Washington in the Mid 90's and the NCOIC of the 542nd SSA was when I first met SFC Campbell, during SGT's training, as the 44th S3 he used to come and inspect my training and did it quite often, he was a true professional, never a bad word, always constructive critiscim and words of wisdom and encouragment, I can say we hit it off because he was all about business and providing the correct training which was also what I did and I felt that he started mentoring me, which did appreciate and resoected his words and guidance, no one ever gave me that kind of help, he did. I went to Korea in 97 and returned back to Lewis in 98, that time I worked as the Plans and OPS NCOIC for the MMC and once again I was dealing with him and we communicated a lot via phone conversations and emails since he sent taskings and I had to deal with them and there were sometimes that we disagreed, but his reasoning prevailed and although my chain of command did not back me up, eventually they had to face the music and me and SGM Campbell shared some laughter afterwards. He went his way and I went my as the Army does to all the Soldiers, so i arrived at Korea in 2001 and there I met once again SGM Campbell who always provided guidance, counseling but mostly friendship. This time I started working at the 55th MMC beside this Beautiful MSG whose desk was next to mine, she was single and we were co-workers but also established a workign relationship, a friendship. I had to visit the 19th TSC HQ a few times and most of the times I got to see SGM Campbell, fast forward to the Summer and I believe we all had to attend the Army Ball and I had talked to SGM Campbell about this Beautiful young lady who I work with, the MSG and I told him I was going to introduce them one day and during the Ball was the perfect time, so I am either at fault or I take credit for making sure that Lawrence met Denise, the rest is a love story which will be for the ages. I will always remember Lawrence as a Friend, as a Mentor who always provided encouragement, wisdom and a smile but most of all as the perfect companion for that Beautiful Lady Denise Campbell. May the Lord guide and Bless you all. Your Friend Babilonia

I met SGM Campbell while stationed in Fort Huachuca AZ back in 2003 he eventually became my supervisor he was one of the best mentor's a soldier could have and a real good friend.if it wasn't for SGM i dont think my life would had been the same he help direct me in the right direction since i was lost when we met. after i got out in 2004 last time we saw each other was in 2005 i flew back into arizona stayed a week to see everyone. we ended up meeting up at chilis we had few drinks talked and laughed it up SGM was funny. played pool and he was so excited to tell me he was going to be doing hair and what plans he had with the business to be honest i never saw him so excited, he ended up giving me a bottle of wine and that was the last time i saw him. over the years i stayed in touch till about 2008. last year in feb i decided to see how he was and i was saddened to hear what had happened to him i know he is in a better place and he is watching over us. he will be missed. i will write you every year my friend.

Old Soldiers never die.....Neverforgotten

October 15, 2013

Sometimes word can’t express the affect a person has had on you during the course of your life.  SGM Campbell and I served together while stationed at Fort Campbell, Ky.  During that time he was my First Sergeant and I was one of the platoon sergeants.  I can remember staying in his office all the time, he would say “I’m telling you Young this is my last time telling you about this the next time you going be reading about it”.  I think about those days and always laugh, only years later did I understand the reason he was so hard on me.  It was because he saw something in me that I did see in myself; he saw my true potential.  I think GOD that he put such a good person in my life.  SGM Campbell is in to a better place but, I can truly say that I’m in a better place in life because of this outstanding leader and his unconditional friendship.

Happy 9th Anniversary Of Our Marriage in Memoriam!!!

 

Missing You

© Kathy Murphy

I sit alone now in the darkness of despair. I cry my silent tears, My heart is broken into a million tiny pieces. The silence is deafening to my ears. The darkness frightens me, The shadows climb the wall. I hear footsteps walking, Passing through the hall. The loneliness surrounds me, It takes my breath away, This is the pattern of my life, Since that awful, dreadful day. Without a clue Without a hint Of what was yet to be, God called you home To be with him And took you away from me. I walk, I talk. I carry on When the sun pokes out it's head But when darkness falls And evening comes I cannot go to bed. For this is when I miss you most of all When I curl into a little ball And cry those silent tears. Watching the shadows, And missing you.

 

Always!!

 

 

Loving You!!

 

 

So Long Sergeant Major!

April 5, 2013

I met SSG Campbell at Fort Lee, VA. in the early fall of 1987.  We attended the U.S. Commissary Management Course together.  The Campbell I knew was soft spoken, he did not talk too much, just an all around nice guy.  Campbell was someone you could talk with - he was pleasant person.  We ran into each other in Wiesbaden, Germany between 1988-1990.  I did not see Campbell again until 2010 at parent night - Beuna Highschool when I heard a voice call my name.  It was Campbell.  I only learned of Campbell's passing this afternoon while at the Barber shop.  I am very sad to know that he has passed away.  I know that he is missed and will be missed by all who knew and loved him.  The Campbell I knew was quite the athelete.  I remember during a morning physical fitness at Fort Lee, VA. (1987) we were running and in those days, I was quite fast.  I heard someone running close behind me - it was Cambell.  I remember his words at the end of the run:  "boy, you sure can run fast."  Campbell is a fellow Missourian, he from St. Louis and me from Columbia.    So Long Campbell, my hope is that you are in the prescence of the Lord enjoying all His peace and Joy that comes from knowing Jesus Christ.  Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on." "Yes," says the Spirit, "they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them."  Revelations 14:13    May the Lord bless and keep the family of our Brother Campbell.  In Jesus Name,  Terris Collins
