Mrs. Campbell, nee Ida Frye, was born near Greeley, Iowa, Sept. 29, 1868. She was united in marriage to Clarence H. Campbell on Aug. 31, 1890, by Rev. Kidder, now of Mt. Vernon, the pastor who preached her funeral sermon, an old friend of the family. They farmed near Aurora until 1912, when they moved to Strawberry Point, which has since been their home. Mrs. Campbell was a member of the Methodist church, the Industrial club and the American Legion Auxiliary. Her friends were without number, and whenever and whatever she could do for those in trouble she was ever ready to do. Surviving, besides the husband, are two sons, Earl K. Campbell, West Palm Beach, Fla., and Harold D. Campbell, Strawberry Point; six brothers, Al Frye and Harley Frye, Aurora: Walter Frye, Chowchilla, Calif.; Arthur Frye, Grandview, Wash.; William Frye, Spokane, Wash., and Bert Frye, Dodson, Mont.
