Minister Robert Campbell - Family history (clip)

Interviewed by George Barrett and Kathryn Wall on October 28, 2022

Robert Campbell: He was our inspiration. Sometimes sitting around telling the tales about growing up and the things they had to endure – I think it just made him a more persistent and stronger person, and in doing so, to teach his children as well as his grandchildren how to fend for themselves. If you have a craft and you’ve got the ability to do things, you can take the discipline from learning that trade and you can add it to another one.
