Neil J. Campbell, 64, of Fernandina Beach, Florida, passed away on July 3, 2025, at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville after a long illness.
Born on September 28, 1960, Neil had a gift for connecting with people and a passion for life that was contagious. Known for his quick wit, warm heart, and boundless enthusiasm, he especially loved classic cars and scuba diving. Whether he was restoring vintage vehicles or exploring the depths of the ocean, Neil brought energy, curiosity, and joy to every adventure.
Neil was a devoted husband, a loving father, and a loyal brother. He is survived by his beloved wife, Beverly Campbell; his children, Caitlin Anne Campbell and Tripp Aaron Campbell; and his brother, Brian Campbell (Gail Campbell). He was preceded in death by his father, Hirl Campbell; mother, Dorothy Pucker; stepmother, Elise Campbell; and brother, Richard Campbell.
Neil's life will be celebrated on Saturday, July 26th, from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM at Schileens Pub / Eileen's Above the Pub, 32 Delsea Drive, Westville, NJ 08093. Please join us for a casual luncheon as we share stories, laughter, and memories of Neil. Guests are encouraged to wear bright colors in honor of his vibrant spirit.
