The story in the Times Colonist says it all.

Philip was a good story teller and worked hard to get the story but at the same time was pleasant in his approach. I knew him from both sides of the business. As is noted in the story he was born in the US. He applied for Canadian Citizenship and to my surprise, I was the presiding Judge at the ceremony to present him his citizenship certificate. The world needs more people like Phil.

Broadcast Dialogue has the reader's digest version:

SIGN-OFF: Philip Campbell, 65, in Victoria after a long illness (stage 4 melanoma). Campbell was a CHEK-TV Victoria anchor-reporter for 22 years until he left the station in 2009. Originally from Catalina, CA, he went to college and worked in Oregon before moving to CHEK in 1987.
