Florence "Flo" Anne (Sanderson) Campbell

She was born the youngest of four children to John Sanderson and Neva (Totten) Sanderson in

Marysville Kansas on April 23, 1940. She is survived by her siblings, Mary (Sanderson) Wetzel

and Etta (Sanderson) Myers. She is preceded in death by her parents, her brother, Bruce

Sanderson, husband, William Campbell and granddaughter, Amber Syme.

Florence attended Bob Jones University and subsequently entered the United States Air Force

after graduation. She met her husband, William “Bill” Campbell while serving in California. They

were married in a civil union in Las Vegas, Nevada on November 1, 1961. Their union would

last for 49 years and produced four children, Elizabeth (Campbell) Syme, Douglas Campbell,

Ronald Campbell, and Dr. Robert Campbell. Their spouses are respectively Edmund Syme,

Joanne Campbell, Karen Campbell, and Cathy Campbell. Florence was also blessed with 13

grandchildren, Amber Syme (deceased), Abrem Syme, Quinn Campbell, Alexis (Campbell)

Heinrich, Matthew Campbell, Eliyah Campbell, Aurora Campbell, Emily Campbell, Regan

Campbell, James Campbell, Maya Campbell, Kara Campbell, and Grayson Campbell.

Throughout her life, Florence held a number of retail jobs but her primary focus was raising her

children. She enjoyed art, gardening, reading, fishing, sewing, needlecrafts, and traveling. She

also enjoyed supporting charitable causes including support of the Lakota Indian Tribe and The

Linus Project for whom she donated many hand-made blankets for children.

Florence will be interred with William for eternity at the Florida National Cemetery in Bushnell,

Florida at an undetermined future date. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be

made to Big Bend Hospice (Tallahassee, Fl) in her name.

“Her children rise up and call her blessed: her husband also, and he praises her: ‘Many

women have done excellently, but you surpass them all....Honor her for all that her hands

have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.” Proverbs 31:28-3
