Another one of our Upstate SC steel players has passed away. Gary Campbell from Pelzer, SC passed last night. He was a great player. He played a red Whitney steel thru an old Peavey Session 400 that he loved. He had the best tone and loved to play! Gary will be missed. RIP, my friend!

I'm new to the forum and I was shocked to see that Gary Campbell had passed away. Did he attend the steel conventions in Saluda SC? There was a guy that I would talk to named Gary but I could never remember his last name. He was a good guy but I don't think he ever played at the show. Seems like he was a mechanic. Is this the Gary that You're referring to?

Gary played pedal steel often at Saluda. He owned his own business rebuilding fuel injector systems.

Gary lived in the upstate of South Carolina in the little town of Pelzer. He was a short, white haired man that played a red Whitney steel guitar. He often attended the show when it was in Saluda, SC. He was a good musician and my friend. I was his pastor at one time. He suffered a stroke and never made a full recovery. He passed away in a nursing facility. Gary is already greatly missed.
