Lillian L Campbell

Lillian was a proud Leech Lake descendant who walked in the ways of the Ojibwe, carrying her culture with strength and love. She was a water protector at Camp Migizi and found connection through hand drumming, song, and community. She especially admired the hand drumming of her close friend Timmy Morgan and held great respect for the group Cedar Creek and Ian (Nigigoons).

She loved fiercely and unconditionally, always showing kindness and loyalty to those around her. At the center of her heart was her son, Misko Benesi, her greatest love and legacy. She is also remembered by his father Jeffery, her special friend Sage Morgan, and her Lifehouse family.

Lily is survived by her mother, Camielle “Cookie” Parent (Henry Remer); Chad Baber; grandmother Gisele Campbell; siblings Donovan “Niizhgaabo” Holmes and Arthur; aunts and uncles Taysha KillsEnemy, Georgia Garret, Marshall KillsEnemy, and Jason Goward; and many loved ones.

She is preceded in death by her grandparents Judy Kay Brown and Gordon Brown; maternal grandfathers Delmar Campbell and Bradley Jay Holmes; great-grandfather Arthur; and her therapist, Evan, who was a deeply important presence in her life and supported her through many things she carried quietly.
