October 10, 1961
May 7, 2025

Anne G. Campbell, age 63, was called home to our Lord on May 7, 2025. A longtime resident of Monument and Colorado Springs, Anne retired from the United States Air Force as a Lieutenant Colonel after serving as a contracting officer and later a member of the faculty at the U.S. Air Force Academy.
Anne was born on October 10, 1961, in Milwaukee, WI, to William and Sarah (Peterson) Gettelman. She grew up in Brookfield, WI, where she also attended high school. Anne graduated from the U.S. Air Force Academy in 1983, and later earned a Master's Degree from the Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy at Tufts University and a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Colorado, Boulder. On May 20, 1989, she married Jeffrey Campbell in Arlington, MA, after they met and fell madly in love at a local church.
After retiring from the Air Force, Anne embarked on a second career as a tutor for students with dyslexia and other reading disabilities. An avid hiker and outdoorswoman, her adventures with family and friends included summiting 14ers, exploring countless Colorado trails, hiking the English countryside, and walking the ancient pilgrim route of the Camino de Santiago. She was a member of the philanthropic organization, PEO, and served as co-president of the Tri-Lakes Women's Group. Despite her many accomplishments, interests, and friendships, Anne found her greatest joy in being a loving wife, mother, and grandmother, and she was beloved in return.
Anne is survived by Jeff, her loving husband of over 35 years; her sons, Connor and Gavin; her grandson, Colt; and her siblings, Parry and Tom. Her memorial service will be held at 10AM on Saturday, June 7, 2025, at Family of Christ Lutheran Church, 675 W. Baptist Road, Colorado Springs, CO, to be followed by a reception at the church.
The family requests no flowers be sent, but cards are welcome. Any memorials in Anne's name may be made to the Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance at https://ocrahope.org/
