The obituary of Catherine (Whitaker) Campbell as published in the 1966 Minutes Book of the Indian Bottom Association of Old Regular Baptists (page 14):
OBITUARY OF CATHERINE WHITAKER-CAMPBELL
Catherine Whitaker-Campbell, was born May 6, 1893, and deceased May 4, 1962, making her stay on earth 68 years, eleven months, and twenty-eight days. She was the daughter of Thomas and Elizebeth Whitaker. Early in life she married James Campbell, who has preceded her in death. To this union were born three children, two of which have preceded her in death. One daughter, Mrs. Spencer Halcomb, who is still living. She also leaves to mourn her loss, two brothers, Alamander and William Whitaker; four sisters, Mrs. Bertha Watts, Mrs. Sophia Bradley, Mrs. Nancy Ann Crase, and Mrs. Linda Miller. There are three grandsons, Charles, James and Johnny Halcomb.
Catherine was not a member of any church here, but according to her testimony and her life, we feel that her soul is at rest. Several nights ago, she sent for Elder Manus Ison to come to her home and when he arrived she began to tell him how great things the Lord had done for her, and that she felt there was nothing in her way. After hearing her relate this good news, Manus asked her if she wanted to join the church. She said, "NO, not now, but I just wanted you to know that I was all right and was ready to go when my time comes and I wanted to hear you pray one more time before I died". She said, "I have seen many beautiful scenes", and that she wanted Manus Ison and Jim Pratt to preach her funeral when she died. She also talked to her sister, Sophia about how the Lord had removed dark clouds from her and placed her in a beautiful light that shone round about her. She also told her sister, Bertha that she was working in a beautiful garden of flowers. Then she also related to her sister, Sophia that she saw a rainbow in the presence of the Lord.
We feel that her life and work shall live on.
