Nora Gene Campbell, 72, passed unexpectedly at her home on May 21, 2025. Nora was the beloved middle child of Mr. and Mrs. Bert Campbell (Joan Hunter Duvar). Predeceased by her children Hunter Robert Campbell Blackmore and baby Joanna Sam Campbell Blackmore (born sleeping). She is also predeceased by her parents and her brother Dr/ Rocky Campbell (Sharlene). Nora is survived by sister Janet Campbell Duperron (Don), along with nephews Campbell Metro (Danielle) and Cory Metro (Kaysha) as well as grand nieces and grand nephew Raegan, Casha, Katalyn and Steven. They will miss her dearly and remember her with love and good humour as will her dearest friends Rose Jacobs, Dillon Sheehan and their children, very dear to Nora, Jersey and Haze.

 

In her youth Nora travelled the country with dreams of theatrical stardom which may have started with her dramatic birth on the doorstep of the family home on North River Road.

 

She never lost her flair for the dramatic and her penchant for a real or imagined dress up tea party is noted by adults and children alike.

 

After a visit to Janet and family, Nora settled in Alberta where she and Brian welcomed dear Hunter and then baby Joanna. While in the west she obtained her education as a rehabilitation practitioner and then returned to the island with Hunter and after his passing she worked with QC residential services.

 

Her limitless capacity for facts and trivia is well known. She remained a voracious reader and those who know will miss her uncanny ability to recommend just the right read for those she loved. She loved a puzzle, any puzzle. Most were wary of her challenge to a game of Scrabble or Jeopardy.

 

In retirement her passions included generously spoiling with love and good food; her family and friends, the neighbourhood birds, her house plants and well-loved cat.

 

She believed her faith sustained her through her losses.

 

She was the family historian, and we know we’ve lost our greatest treasure.

 

In the arms of the angel.

 

Safe home Nor.
