Fay and Duncan Campbell's education legacy

Duncan started volunteering on the Fredericton DUC fundraising committee in the 1980s, where he formed lifelong friendships with both staff and his fellow volunteers. He even created a photo album of the first DUC wetland field trip, called the Greenwing program at the time, at a marsh outside of Oromocto. He was so proud of the committee and all they accomplished for kids and conservation over the years. “He grabbed hold of things that were good,” Andrew says.

Duncan was an avid waterfowler, but loved wetlands for everything they provided. He took his children and grandchildren fishing regularly, and he and Fay enjoyed hiking and birdwatching together. Duncan and Fay’s son Chris Campbell remembers summers at the cottage and time spent outdoors learning from their father. “He had so much knowledge, and he shared that with us when we were out in the woods.” Giving back, Chris says, “was never a burden.”
