Logan - Rosalie Barrus Campbell, 95, passed away peacefully at her family home on Pioneer Day, July 24, 2014. She is a long-time Logan resident and matriarch of the Campbells of Campbell Scientific.
Born January 19, 1919, Rosalie was the pillar of her family on many fronts. She lived a selfless, faith-based life, dedicating herself to her husband, H. Sanford Campbell, her 11 children, 66 grandchildren, 181 great-grandchildren, and four great-great grandchildren.
Rosalie was the fifth of nine children born to Ruel Melvin and Zina Emeline Hale Barrus of Groveland, Bingham County, Idaho. Rosalie is survived by her two younger brothers, Neil Barrus of Toole, Utah and Ruel Barrus of Boise, Idaho.
She graduated from Blackfoot High School as valedictorian of her class and intended to further her education using her 4-H scholarship at University of Idaho. Instead, Rosalie met and fell in love with a Juniper, Idaho dry farmer. They were married June 28, 1938 in the Logan LDS Temple.
This handsome young suitor lured Rosalie to a life of nurturing that fostered scientists, engineers, teachers, agronomists, and business entrepreneurs; not by teaching their children physics, calculus, and economics, but by teaching them hard work, patience, long-suffering, perseverance, and honesty.
Rosalie dreamed of raising her family in a community that offered good schools, strong music programs, and an LDS church environment. Since the dry farm at Juniper, Idaho was geographically remote from all these, they decided to raise their family in Logan.
It was a hardship on her to take care of two homes and meet the needs of her family at both locations but she did it without ever complaining. She managed to bake 27 loaves of fresh whole-wheat bread every week and likely did the same number of batches of wash in the old wringer washing machine. By each fall she had filled the shelves of the basement fruit room with bottles of peaches, applesauce, pears and apricots; and the cellar with her fresh potatoes, squash and carrots from the garden to sustain her family for the winter with healthy, home-grown food.
Rosalie was a long-time member of the Logan 17th Ward where she served as Relief Society President and in many other callings. She and Sanford served for two years as LDS missionaries among the Native American people in Wanblee, S.D.
Even as Parkinson's disease took its toll on her body and dementia confused her mind, Rosalie maintained a wonderful sense of humor. She also retained a love of music, daily devotionals and pink fingernail polish; and rarely lost a game of Scrabble or Uno.
Rosalie was preceded in death by her son Eric C. Campbell in 1992; by her husband, H. Sanford Campbell in 2004; and her youngest daughter, Jeanne Marie Campbell Tibbitts in 2011. Her surviving nine children and children's surviving spouses are:
Gaylon S. Campbell (Judy), Pullman, Wash.
Dorothy C. Little (Don), Morgan, Utah
Ronald H. Campbell (Mary Jean), Mendon, Utah
Stanley R. Campbell (Diana), Juniper, Idaho
daughter-in-law
Sandra G. Campbell, North Logan, Utah
Evan B. Campbell (Marion), Hyde Park, Utah
Bruce L. Campbell (Kayleen), Smithfield, Utah
Ruby C. Stroschein (Tom), Moscow, Idaho
Paul D. Campbell (Paulette), Logan, Utah
Wayne L. Campbell (Karen), Providence, Utah
and son-in-law
Ira LaRon Tibbitts, Grace, Idaho
Three foster daughters lived with Rosalie and Sanford at various times: Donna Vicinti Quintana of Dulce, New Mexico; LaDonna Jake James of Yakutat, Alaska; and Cassandra Tsai of Taiwan.
The Campbell family give special thanks to all the dedicated caregivers who served their mother over the past ten plus years; Bishop Samuel L. Peery, and all the wonderful people of the Logan 17th Ward for their caring and life-long fellowship.
The Campbell children wish to invite friends and family to memorialize their mother with worship, story, and song at a funeral service to be held in her honor Tuesday at 11 a.m., July 29, 2014 at the Cache West Stake Center, 125 W. 600 North, in Logan, Utah.
A Visitation/Viewing will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Monday Evening, July 28, 2014 at Cache West Stake Center, 125 W. 600 North, Logan, Utah, and from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, prior to the funeral service.
