Missouri farrier Charles "Chuck" Campbell passed away April 9, 2026. He was 71.

Campbell attended horseshoeing school in Oklahoma and later served in the Army. He carried that sense of duty and integrity with him throughout his life. He was known for his work ethic and steady hands and spent much of his life as a farmer, farrier and heavy equipment operator. Campbell lived a life of freedom, honesty and strength.

Above all, he cherished his family and passed down many stories, wisdom and traditions. He will be remembered for his steady presence and the simple life he shared with his loved one. Campbell is survived by his wife, two children, seven grandchildren and many family and friends.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Special Learning Center. A celebration of life will be held at a later time. Read Campbell's full obituary here.
