Nellie Campbell

In loving memory of our beloved mother, Nellie Campbell, who passed away July 31, 2010, one year ago today.

As we honored your last wishes,

We know you have lived on.

To Remember MeGive my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby’s face or love in the eyes of a woman. Give my heart to a person whose own heart has pain. Give my blood to the teenager who was pulled from the wreckage of his car, so that he might live to see his grandchildren play. Give my kidneys to one who depends on a machine to exist from week to week. Take my bones, every muscle, every fiber and nerve in my body and find a way to make a crippled child walk. Explore every corner of my brain. Take my cells, if necessary, and let them grow so that, someday, a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her window. If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weaknesses and all prejudice against my fellow man.

- Robert N. Test in the Cincinnati Post
