As a young man starting from Winnipeg, Al ventured to find his place of settlement, landing on the range of Turner Valley, Alberta. After years of ranch work, Al settled down in Edmonton, Alberta, started a family and grew to hold a position in the agronomy business that fostered his love for the prairies. The prairies, however, were second place in his heart – Malachi had always been his home.

We all hear the lake when she calls and Malachi was always calling to Al. In 2010, having relocated to Winnipeg for some years, Al retired. This time for “the peace and solitude of the Malachi Rest Home”, his forever home.

The Campbell family have been residents at Malachi Lake for over 100 years and Al took pride in our legacy. He was our neighbourhood watch, the fire warden, managed road maintenance, and joined projects throughout our community. Although quiet and stubborn, his love was shown through his acts of service, and he loved the Lake and the people within it.

Al is survived by: Meghan Campbell (daughter), Isla and Reina (grandchildren); Kristin Campbell (daughter), Mikyla, Brody and Jemma (grandchildren); Siblings: Gary (Bev) Campbell; Barb (predec. Dave) Hopper.
