Letter from Kim Campbell
Kim Campbell’s loving message about the passing of her husband, the great Glen Campbell
Glen Campbell 1936 – 2017
It is with heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, and legendary singer and guitarist, Glen Travis Campbell, at the age of 81, following his long and courageous battle with Alzheimer’s disease.
The King Of Campbellot
The roles of a husband and wife can be likened to a king and queen ruling over their kingdom. Glen was the King of Campbellot and of my heart, and always will be. – Kim Campbell
There’s No Me Without You
With Valentine’s Day approaching, I was thinking about how wonderful it is to be in love and what a gift it is to be able to express your love to someone. Glen’s song, There’s No Me Without You, took on a deeper meaning for both of us as his sense of self began to diminish due to Alzheimer’s.
A Beautiful Love Song
Our job as caregivers is to help our loved ones finish their song. Although this song was not written by Glen, the words spoke to me as If they came directly from his heart.
Enjoy The Moment
For people with dementia, every day is the same. There’s a unique peace to not being burdened with the pressures of time passing. Maybe caregivers can learn from this unexpected advantage…
Glen Campbell sings “Chanukah”
Glen loved singing and recording Christmas songs, but always wanted to record “Chanukah” by Marty Goetz. Sadly, Alzheimer’s robbed him of the opportunity to ever properly record it. Here, for the first time, is a home video of the only performance of Glen singing this song.
Exercise Your Imagination
It’s fun to dream – especially during the holidays – and it’s healthy for your brain and your emotional well being, too. Not only can your imagination stimulate creativity, it can also alleviate stress and help you find joy. Kim Campbell reminds you to Exercise Your Imagination!
