Inez was a beautiful soul and lived a fruitful life. She married the love of her life, Carl Campbell, on August 21, 1954. They lived 69 wonderful years together raising their beautiful family. Inez enjoyed making a home for her family. She was known for her cooking and especially her famous fried chicken and homemade biscuits. She loved to paint and was an avid landscape artist. Her passion for reading and love for learning grew into an in-home library, where she read and taught the children of her family everything from the Bible to reading, writing, and arithmetic. Her favorite pastime was being the loving wife, mother, and grandmother to her family. She was the definition of a homemaker/housewife.
