~Acknowledgement~
The flowers that you sent that day,
The cards that you mailed along the way,
The service you stopped by to render,
The gifts you brought with thoughts so tender,
The prayer you said which played a part
In easing that pain that was in our hearts,
Each helped us to find the strength to bear
The loss of one we held so dear
It was to us a great comfort indeed
To see you in the time of sorrow and need;
So from the hearts which you tried to help mend
We thank you sincerely again and again
For being such truly wonderful friends.

Obituary
Teresa Campbell, 53, daughter of Betty Tillman Campbell and the late Robert Campbell was born in Chesterfield, South Carolina on April 28, 1967. She departed this life on Sunday, May 10, 2020 at her residence. Teresa was a high achiever and graduated from Chesterfield High School in 1985. She earned her Bachelor of Science degree in biology from the University of South Carolina in 1995. Teresa aspired to further her purpose and education by earning her nursing degree from Presbyterian School of Nursing at Queens University in 2007. She also served in the United States Army from 1986 to 1991. Teresa confessed Christ at an early age and became a member of Galilee A.M.E. Zion Church, Morven, North Carolina. She was a member of the usher board and secretary of Sunday school. Teresa was known to be an excellent daughter, sister and friend. She loved her family and was a dedicated friend to many. We will always feel that Teresa was taken from us to soon. We know that it was in God’s plan and we have her beautiful smile and wonderful memories to sustain us. Teresa leaves to cherish fond memories: her mother, Betty T. Campbell, Chesterfield, SC; a brother, Dwight Campbell (Camille), Coral Springs, FL; an aunt, Ruby Broadaway (Joe), Clarksville, TN; four uncles, James E. Crowder, Charlotte, NC, Elijah Tillman, Jr. (Althea), Charlotte, NC, Barnie Tillman, Cheraw, SC and Darris Tillman, Morven, NC; special cousins, Emmanuel Jackson, Morven, NC and Derek Tillman, Clarksville, TN; a special friend, Hattie G. Lamar, Birmingham, AL; a host of cousins, other relatives and friends. In addition to her father, Robert Campbell, Teresa was preceded in death by a special uncle, Kenneth Campbell.
Do not judge a biography by its length, Nor by the number of pages in it. Judge it by the richness of its contents
Sometimes those unfinished are among the most poignant
Do not judge a song by its duration Nor by the number of its notes Judge it by the way it touches and lifts the soul
Sometimes those unfinished are among the most beautiful
And when something has enriched
your life
And when its melody lingers on in
your heart
Is it unfinished?
Or is it endless?
