The passing of Ruth Katherine (Young) Campbell, wife of the

grandmother, great-grandmother and sister, Ruth is survived by one
son: Arnold Jr. (Suzanne) Campbell of Kingston ON; daughters: Karen
(Sidney) Kernighan of St. George NB and Susan (Ryan) Greenlaw of St.
George NB; six grandchildren: Cara (Adam) Hatt, Bradley (Krista)

predeceased by her companion: Sheldon Seeley; brothers: Ross Young and

Townes.
Prior to retirement, Ruth worked for 25 years with Connors
Brothers in Blacks Harbour. In her spare time, she loved music,
dancing, going for drives, especially to the Sus Flea Market, and
being surrounded by the love of her grandchildren and
great-grandchildren. One of Ruth’s favourite pastimes was
going for evening drives to the Hatchery with Sheldon where they spent
many hours together. Her kindness, love and devotion to those she
loved never went unnoticed and she will be greatly missed by all who
knew her.
The family would like to thank Dr. Vance Anderson and all
those who have helped care for Ruth over the last few years. Your
kindness and compassion shown to our mother will always be remembered
with great gratitude.

Friday, June 30th, 2023 at 2:00 pm with Rev.
Jason Hooper officiating followed by the interment in the Bocabec
Community Cemetery. In Ruth’s memory, donations to Charlotte
County Cancer would be appreciated by the family.
