Merla Ann was born in New Holland and resided there until her marriage to Dean Campbell on December 3, 1955.  She was the loving daughter of Glyn and Grace (Kinard) Wilson and doting sister to Garry and Vic. Before retiring to become a stay-at-home mom and homemaker, Merla Ann was a legal secretary for both EC Brannon, Sr and Jr.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband Dean, brother Garry, and sister-in-law Deanie.  Merla Ann is survived by her brother Vic (Joan) Wilson, Sons and Daughters-in-Law:  Tracy and Cindy Campbell, Casey and Tracey Lynn Campbell, Daughters and Sons-in-Law: Melissa and Pete Murphy, Malana and Wayne Parson.  Grandchildren: Beth (Steve) Soto, Nic (Kristen) Murphy, Brenna Parson, Kelyn Parson, Trey Campbell, Layna Parson, Ansleigh Campbell, Ty Campbell.  Great-Grands:  Hunter Nesbitt, Christopher Soto, Emmalynn Soto, Savannah Soto, Dean Soto.

Merla Ann made it known to all that her children and grandchildren were her reason for living.  All she ever wanted to be was a good mother and she far exceeded that goal.
