Joseph ‘Joe’ Troy Campbell, age 72, of Benton, went to be with God on Friday, February 10, 2023. Joe
was born on October 24, 1950, in Chicago, Illinois.
Joe was a tremendous husband, son, brother, father and grandfather. Joe graduated from Catholic High
School in 1968 and furthered his education at the University of Arkansas. Joe had an uncanny ability to
strike up a conversation with just about anyone. This led to a lengthy career in sales. From insurance to
cars, Joe always built strong personal relationships with customers and colleagues.
Joe was a member at Northside Church of Christ for more than 35 years. He thoroughly enjoyed deep
discussions about his biblical studies and personal journey in faith. Outside of church, Joe loved golf,
sports commentating, cooking, Rush Limbaugh, the Razorbacks, road-tripping and nature. Joe was
excited about an upcoming trip to Alaska with the love of his life, Kathy. His passion for his friends and
family will be missed by anyone that knew him.
He was preceded in death by his father, Leon ‘Muscles’ Campbell; his son, Matthew Campbell; and his
sister, Robin Burrow.
Joe was survived by his wife, Kathy Ditmore Campbell; his son and daughter-in-law, Craig and Dana
Campbell; his daughter and son-in-law, Cristin and Boyd Goodner; his grandchildren, Gray and Elliott
Goodner; his mother, Patsy Campbell; his two brothers and sisters-in-law, Mike and Linda Campbell and
Pat and Teena Campbell; his sister, Rita Kordsmeier; his sister and brother-in-law, Gwen and Wendell
Simpson; his aunt and uncle, Rita and Terry Allen and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family
members and friends.
