[2975000 Speight from Ernest NORMAN.ged]
Obituarie fom the White River Journal 3 June 1999
Mary Evelyn Speight Campbellage 84 years, went to be with her Savi
or on Thursday, May 27, 1999. She wasborn November 21, 1914, at Hicko
ry Plains, Prairie County, Arkansas to Dock Franklin and Mary Olliver Rook
er Speight, who preceded her in death. She was preceded in death by her hu
sband, Walter Franklin Campbell in November, 1973,and by her step-son Wal
ter Jackson Campbell in February, 1994. She joins herfour brothers, Eucli
d, Cecil, D.F., and Elmer Speight and two sisters, Eula Rowe and Blanche H
ayley, in their heavenly home.
Surviving her are four daughters and sons-in-law, Bettie and Horace Smi
th of Little Rock, Reva and Waymond Whitworth, Mabelvale, Sara and Prest
on Hambrick and Wilma and Lloyd Holloway, all of Des Arc.
Teresa Hinds and Arlene Morgan, Little Rock; Ernie Norman,McRae; Eddie W
hitworth, Hensley; Tammy Winsor, Mabelvale; Randy and Angela Hambrick a
nd Joel Holloway of Des Arc; and Wendell Holloway of Conway are her nine s
urviving and beloved grandchildren. Eight step-grand-children survive he
r: Pat, Ron, Donna, Steve, Beth, Alan, Chris and Kevin Campbell, as we
ll as twenty-two great grandchildren.
Edith Jolly of Buckeye, Arizona; Annie Norene Harris and Norma Barlow, bo
th of Des Arc are her living sisters. She leavesbehind many special niec
es and nephews and a host of loving friends and relatives.
Ms. Campbell was a resident of Des Arc Nursing and Rehabilitation Cent
er since 1990 and her many dedicated and loving caregivers mourn her passi
ng.
Evelyn was a loving mother and grandmother and aunt. She encouraged her c
hildren and grandchildren to educate themselves, since she grew up in a ti
me when education was difficult to obtain. She attended her grandchildren
's ballgames, award banquets, band concerts, graduations, went to church w
ith them. She fully supported their meaningful school and extra-curricul
ar activities and was so proud of all their achievements. Many times, Gran
dma Campbell was the inspiration for her family to succeed in life. She w
as a strong-willed person who never gave up. The word "can't" did not exi
st in her vocabulary.
Among the struggles she faced in her life were many serious medical probl
ems. She lived through surgery for gallstones, kidney stones, colon resec
tion, broken wrists, hip replacement and cancer, which she bravely foug
ht and strongly and successfully defeated with her faith in God and tremen
dous will to live. God saw her through raising her step-son and her fo
ur daughters and helping with her many grandchildren. She cared for her s
ick parents until their deathwhile doing her wifely and motherly duti
es on the farm where they produced their own food. After the death of h
er mother, she assumed the responsibilityof caring for her brother who h
ad infantile paralysis after his birth and had lived his life unable to sp
eak plain enough for most folks to understand. She eventually placed h
im in a nursing home where he lived the rest of his life, but she did n
ot forget him. She visited him often and brought him home to visit the fa
mily, too.
In the early 1950's Evelyn and Walter's youngest daughter was stricken wi
th polio and they cried together and prayed together and then together th
ey tackled the medical needs of their child who was placed in treatment a
nd convalescent center in Jacksonville where she could receive special car
e. After many tears and lots of prayer meetings in their home, they we
re able to bring their daughter home, while many children did not live thr
ough polio. That daughter holds a Master's Degree and teaches special edu
cation today because of detmination and example set before her by her lovi
ngparents. Their children benefited from the strength, determination a
nd example in the same manner, as well as the children who lived with th
em and the numerous children she tended while their parents w[MAY 28 2005.ged]
