Mary Margaret (Bills) Campbell, aged 67, passed away Monday, September 15, 1997 in LDS Hospital.
Mary Margaret was born May 17, 1930, in Port Huron, Michigan, the daughter of Harold Allen and Norma Lorena (Burt) Bills. She graduated in the Class of '48 from Port Huron High School where she was a member of the GAA, the Honor Society, the Hi-Y, and where she also lettered in basketball. She married Donald Jack Campbell, July 15, 1949 in the Washington Avenue Methodist Church in Port Huron. She was employed as an executive secretary for Acheson-Colloids of Port Huron and later in the Ordinance Division for Minneapolis Honeywell. After moving to Utah in 1977, she worked for Barry-Brooke Realty, Builders Realty, All Star Lanes, Sunstate Properties and Don Campbell Realty.An avid bowler for many years, she attended numerous WIBC National Tournaments. She was very active in the City and State Junior Bowling Programs. She loved to golf and was very proud of her Ace on #3 at Glenmoor. She would have been equally as proud of her brother achieving his Ace the morning she passed away. After her stroke in 1992, Mary Marr was very determined to live life to the fullest. She was able to continue her love of bowling, as well as golfing with less success than she was accustomed, but her interest never diminished. She loved to travel and most recently spent the last five weeks visiting her family and friends.
