Prayers for Mark Campbell

What's on your mind?

by NumeroUno » Sun Mar 17, 2019 9:32 pm

One of Softball’s most successful coaches needs all your prayers. I copied this from FB. I heard he collapsed on the field today but I don’t have many detail.


Update 4:30pm PST
Mark Campbell had a successful surgery to stop the internal bleeding. He must remain stabilized for 24 hours to deal with blood clots found in his lungs. He is fighting for his life and the family asks for your continuous prayers and positive thoughts.

Very sad to say but Mark did not make it.

Mark did so much for the sport and will be very missed. Keep his family in your prayers

Prayers to Mark and his family. Our family will miss him, one thing I'd like to pass around is my daughter and I always saw him smiling, her and Mark have that in common. My daughter says she will smile on for him. Rest in Peace Mark.

Wow, sudden, tragic news this morning.
I just saw Coach Mark when our high schools played each other a couple weeks ago.
Same old smartass, when we shook hands, he said "What's the "M" on your hat stand for, moron?".
.
I remember 2007, starting out in travel for 12u, and being amazed at his teams for the next few years.
And like Spaz said, his style was not for everyone, but he would always greet me and have a nice chat later on when my kid was in high school.

Rest in peace and prayers to his family.

Incredibly saddened to hear about Marks passing. One of the thibgs my DD misses the most about no longer going to STC was not getting to see coach Campbell.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, his teams and all of the catchers who he gave lessons to, we will all miss him.

Mark was a good dude, helped me out quite a bit, I loved to pick his brain whenever we spoke because he always had a lot to say! Had a great perspective on softball and life, both of which made me laugh. The softball world lost an icon, his family a husband and father, those who knew him, a one of a kind friend..... God speed Mr. Campbell

Just hard to believe! A huge part of our coaching family, a person I always wanted to emulate, and my friend. Mark you were special! I and many others wished we could be half the coach, half the person you were.

You will be missed greatly!
