David “Mark” Campbell of Bloomfield, Ontario June 16th, 1959 – May 18th, 2019
Embraced in the presence of four generations of his family at his side, our so dearly loved Mark died peacefully at his family’s cottage on the morning of Saturday, May 18th, 2019. Mark’s profound faith in Jesus guided him in his living and comforted him in his dying. While Marky leaves us all with a gaping hole in our hearts, the gifts of so many indelible memories and influences fill our hearts with wonder and gratefulness to have been alongside this spontaneous, intense, passionate and fun-loving character. Cherished son and Harley buddy of Gary and BJ Campbell. Irreplaceable gem of a husband and very best friend of Heather Campbell. Faithful and fun(ny) Dad and friend of Billi and Stephen Prinzen and Scott and Anastasia Campbell. Spirited and adoring Grampy of Will and Luke Prinzen and Emerson and Lucia Campbell. Banty rooster and sparky brother of Ron and Diane Campbell, Terry Rutherford and the late Sandy Rutherford, Wendy and Dean Goodman.
