Beverley Joan Campbell
1940 – December 28, 2024
Beverley Joan Campbell (née Watcher), of Belmont, Ontario, passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by family, on December 28, 2024, at the age of 84. Beloved wife for 67 years of the late Lenard Douglas Campbell (October 2024). Together again, hand in hand through eternity. Cherished mother of Cynthia (Bob) Nelson, Sherry Campbell, the late Lenard Campbell Jr. (Brenda), Trudy (Richard) Maresch, Rhonda Campbell, Douglas Campbell, the late Laura (Sylvain) Forgues, and Jackie (Charles) Forgues.
Beloved grandmother of Crystal (Steve) Abdey, the late Beverly Campbell, Jeremy (Christine) Campbell, Erin, Tyler, and Stephen Campbell, Ashley and Michael Maresch, Justin (Libbie), Renée, and Samantha Forgues. Dear great-grandmother of Matthew, Caylee, Danika, and Aria Abdey, Nicholas and Mona Campbell. Fondly remembered and dearly missed by her brother Robert (Shirley) Watcher, sister Sandy Metcalfe, and many nieces and nephews. Predeceased by her sisters Jacqueline (Gerald) Ball and Carol Ann Watcher.
Bev was a talented guitarist with a beautiful voice, loved her plants (and plants loved her), and was an avid reader and an impressive puzzle master. She was smart, strong, and resourceful during difficult times, always a generous hostess and the life of the party. She will be forever remembered for her love of music, dancing, and her unwavering strength.
Cremation has taken place. Arrangements have been entrusted to Shawn Jackson Funeral Home, 31 Elgin Street, St. Thomas (519-631-0570). A Celebration of Life will be held next spring when Beverley’s ashes will be reunited with her husband and soulmate at the St. Thomas Cemetery.
