Jimmy was born in Kingsport, Tennessee on May 31, 1957 and lived his entire life there. He was a 1975 graduate of Dobyns Bennett High School. He worked for Appalachian Flying Service and the Kingsport Press and Inove’ Graphics until their closings. He was an avid outdoorsman, whether it was hunting, fishing or on a mountain in Colorado snow skiing or long rides on his Harley. Jimmy found peace in the great outdoors.
He was a lifetime member of the H.M.W.H.D.C.& S.E Club.
Preceded in death by his father, Carl William Campbell and paternal grandparents, James and Helen Campbell and maternal grandparents, Earlie and Hattie Newton.
