Mrs. Campbell died on Monday, March 24, 2014 at her residence. She was born November 18, 1940, in Morgan County to William Sharp and Geneva Bolden Sharp. Alice was a loving mother and wife of 56 years. Everyone called her “Granny”. She loved kids and would care for any child she came in contact with. We, her kids, teased her saying, she was “The Pied Piper of Children”. She never met a stranger and would give you the shirt off her back or food from our table. If there was a family with financial problems our parents would make sure the kids had Christmas. She did this all the time, but she also didn’t take disrespect. “Granny” was known for her switches. She would make us go get the switch from the tree that was going to be used, (But it was all done with love).
She was preceded in death by two sons: Tommy Odell Campbell and Thomas “Bo” Campbell.
