Bio

Milo Kay Campbell 1932 - 2004 VETERAN Early Life: Milo was born September 4, 1932, in Richfield, Utah, to Milo Golden and Alporta Allen Campbell. His family lived in Kingston, Utah, and other rural areas before his family moved to Ioka, Utah, where he finished high school. Education: He attended Dixie College and Brigham Young University, where he graduated with bachelor's and master's degrees. In 1972, he earned a doctorate from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan. Life's Work | Service | Interests: On September 12, 1959, Milo married Marilee Beard in the Saint George Utah Temple. He served in the armed forces in Germany during the Korean War, and later served as a missionary in the North German Mission. Milo, a lifelong educator, his career began as an elementary school teacher and later served as principal of a rural school in Southern Utah. He was a principal of the Brigham Young University Laboratory School (elementary). In 1968, he became a faculty member in the Education Department at BYU and later became a professor in that same department. He specialized in multi-cultural and Rural Education. His professional achievements were varied and extensive and include a number of publications, awards and national honors. As a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he served in many capacities: bishop, counselor to two bishops, stake high council, with the general church correlation committee, and many others. A fine athlete, he spent much of his life avidly playing racquetball and basketball. For the past twenty five years, his love of basketball was centered around his friends of the faculty and staff group who played together three times a week. These friends saved his life, four years ago, after he collapsed on the court but he chose to be released from this life as he was again surrounded by these friends who made a valiant effort to minister to him after another collapse. He felt that his life had been a good one. Most importantly, he was a devoted and tender, loving parents and grandparent, who was willing to make any sacrifice for his family's well-being. He will be sorely missed. Dearly loved, Milo Kay Campbell passed away in Provo, Utah on April 19, 2004. He was 71. Awards | Accolades: Publications, awards and national honors.
