Her parents, William L. Keeter and Sarah Corine Phillips Keeter; her husband, Loyd Cole Campbell; one son, Danny Cole Campbell; one sister, Mamye Eckhardt; and two brothers, Franklin and Billy Keeter preceded her in death.

Mrs. Maggie was a long time faithful member of Coleman Memorial United Methodist Church where she was a long time member of the George Finley Sunday School Class and she lovingly referred to her church as her family as well. 

She graduated high school in the LCHS Class of 1947, attended Draughon’s Business College and returned to Lawrenceburg to spend many years working at Parks Motor Company, followed by Brewer Marston Ford and in later years when she and her husband bought H.G Hills Grocery which became Campbell’s Food Town, she devoted her career to owning and running the family business.  Their marriage was a true partnership in every way.  Their near 40 years together was spent as active community members, engaging in numerous musical initiatives where Loyd and Danny played many instruments and Maggie was their greatest fan.

Arrangements are being handled by Neal Funeral Home, 231 N. Military Avenue, Lawrenceburg, TN. A private graveside service will be scheduled for the family.  Family suggests memorials be made to Coleman Memorial United Methodist Church.
