Mr. Campbell had a love for wildlife and the outdoors. He enjoyed spending time at his land, which he affectionately called his “wildlife refuge,” and with his wife Charlsie Campbell. From he and his wife came four daughters and he showed his love to them by being an excellent father. Carroll and his wife were members of Spring Hill 1st Baptist Church.
