James Delano Campbell, Sr.

James "Jim" Delano Campbell, Sr., born on April 8, 1935, in Kanawha, West Virginia, peacefully passed away on September 23, 2023. He was the beloved son of the late Rance Campbell and Pansy Mae Metz Campbell.

He is survived by a devoted son, James "Jamie" D. Campbell, Jr. (Laurie), two loving daughters, Adele Bowman (Mark) and Sherri Bodenheimer (Vern), and a stepson, George Randall Hoffman (Cathy). Jim leaves behind a legacy of love, as he is also survived by seven cherished grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, and two great-great-grandchildren.

Jim dedicated his career to maintenance at Wake Forest University, where his hard work and commitment made a lasting impact. His sense of duty and responsibility extended beyond his workplace; he was a dedicated member of Union Grove Baptist Church, where he found strength and purpose in his faith.
