Della Campbell

Della Ruth Gentry Campbell age 91 of Laurel Bloomery, TN passed away on Sunday, January 28, 2024 at Johnston Memorial Hospital in Abingdon, VA. She was born  November 3, 1932 in Newport, TN to the late Russel Fredrick Gentry and Ruth Omega Cunningham Gentry.  In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband Clyde Campbell; sister, Virgie Gentry; brothers, Russel Gentry, Andy Gentry, Lester Gentry and Jackie Gentry.

Della was married to Clyde Campbell in February of 1955.  They were married for 56 years before his passing in 2011.  She was a member of State Line Baptist Church in Laurel Bloomery. Her Sunday School Class meant so much to her.   Della loved to crochet and clean.  If you have an afghan that she made, hold it tight and know that it was made with love.  While she loved many things such as crocheting, going to Sam's and watching the birds, her favorite thing to do was read her bible.  She was an avid woman of faith and cleanliness.  No matter how spotless something was, it was never up to her standards.  Della loved her grandchildren and great grandchildren more than words can say and they kept her full of life.

Those left to cherish her memories include her daughters, Sharon Winters, Sherry (Carl) Stout; son, David (Jane) Campbell; sister, Margaret (Ted) Spivey, Carolyn Bishop; grandsons, Nathan (Vangie) Winters, Eugene Campbell, Daniel (Danielle) Stout; great grandchildren, Zachary (Kelsey) Winters, Natalie (Hayden) Winters, Silas Stout, Ezra Stout and Madelyn Campbell; several nieces and nephews  and other special people in her life including, Shenna, Connor, Michael, Joann, Callie Ann, Vicki, Carolyn Ray, Linda Wilson and the Sunday School Class and church she grew up in at State Line Baptist.

Funeral service for Della will be held Tuesday, January 30, 2024 at 4 pm  at State Line Baptist Church with Pastor Dave Newbern and Michael Icenhour bringing a message of telling and asking her family if they are ready to meet Jesus, as this was her wish. The family will receive friends from 2 pm to 4 pm prior to the service.
