There was much to be admired, respected and a little in awe of when it came to Allan. Both he and Helen raised some very fine children whom as adults do much to honour their parents. Allan was simply so kind, clever and genuine. Sending all his whanau so much love, strength and hugs. He is missed.

My father-in-law, Allan Campbell, was one the kindest, erudite and principled men I have met. I will miss him dearly. We all will.

We will remember Allan as kind, caring and funny. He was a person willing to put time and energy into researching and presenting in words and action, what he believed could make this world a better place.
We are so glad and fortunate to have had Allan, Helen and their children in our lives for many of the years we have lived in this country. We will miss him.
