She entered into eternal life on August 31, 2008 at St. Mary’s TCU with her daughter Amy and close friend Shirley Jenssen at her side. Verdene grew up on the family farm and graduated from the Fairfax High School and earned her Teaching Degree from the Southern State Teachers College in Springfield. She immediately started her teaching career that took her to Fairfax, Bonesteel, Gregory, Platte, Mitchell and to Philomath and Corvallis in Oregon. She married Fenton Campbell in Corvallis on March 3, 1949 and they returned to the Fairfax area and later moved to Pierre where she continued her teaching career in the Pierre system for the next 30 years. Their daughter Amy was born in Pierre. She taught several years at McKinley School and the last 16 at Buchannan. She was known by all her students as “The Teacher that had the Candy”. Her students were handed a piece of candy when they had a bad day. During her teaching career she touched the lives of many who respected and loved her and holding her in good esteem. Verdene was a life long member of the First United Methodist Church and her fun activities included being a Twins Fan and politics. Her life long love of playing the piano and organ entertained Senior Citizens and residents in the retirement centers and nursing homes. Traveling, playing BINGO and not missing a chance to frequent a casino gave her great pleasure. Her culinary skills delighted the palate of all Amy’s friends during their teenage years, most especially her wonderful salads. Her true pride and joy came in the form of a grandson, Drew Davidson who was born nine years before her passing. Verdene is survived by her daughter Amy and son-in-law Guy Davidson and grandson Drew from St. Louis Park, MN; her sister Donna Raterman of Fairfax; three nephews; two nieces and special friends Kermith Edge and Shirley Jenssen. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband Fenton in 1985; one brother Kenneth; four half sisters: Dorothy Metzger, Lela Lakey, Louise Halterman and Alyce Metzger and brother-in-law and sister-in-law Nina and Eddie Davis. Memorials may be directed to the Pierre Area Senior Citizens or the First United Methodist Church building fund. Submitted by Connie Kappelman McKean (#47411136)
