Miss Emily Campbell of Hanna (UPCCEM, March 1928)

Hanna Cemetery Record

Campbell, Emily Brunton
Link: ​Headstone: "Nov. 6, 1906 - Jan. 26, 1928"
Plot: 133
Age: 22
Note: The sudden and unexpected passing of Emily Brunton Campbell cast a gloom of sorrow over the entire community of Hanna. Emily entered the Hanna Hospital on January 10th and submitted to an operation for appendicitis which was considered successful, and while she did not progress as satisfactorily as was hoped, her complete recovery was looked for. Leaving the hospital she was taken to her home, where it was thought she would be more contented, and thereby her complete recovery hastened, but death came on January 26, at 6:30 P. M.
Emily, or "Sis" as we familiarly called her, was born in Scotland, November 6, 1906, and came to this country with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Campbell the year 1920, locating with her parents in Hanna, where she attended the public school, graduating from the High School. After graduating she accepted the position of Assistant Bookkeeper in the U. P. Coal Company Store, where, by her kindly and courteous manner and loyal and efficient service, she endeared herself to all with whom she came in contact.
Funeral services were held at there Methodist Church on Sunday, January 29th, the Rev. J. M. Johnson officiating. Interment was made in the Hanna Cemetery, and the esteem in which she was held was evidenced by the many floral offerings and the large concourse of relatives and friends that attended the remains to their last resting place.
The deceased leaves to mourn her loss, her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Campbell; two sisters, Mrs. Joseph Jones and Lena Campbell; and one brother, James Campbell, all of Hanna.
The entire community extends its heartfelt sympathy to the sorrowing parents and relative in this their sad affliction. (Union Pacific Coal Company Employe's Magazine, March 1928)
