Honoring their late husband and father, Glen Campbell, by continuing his quest to educate people about Alzheimer’s disease, Kim and Ashley Campbell share their family’s journey of faith, love, determination, and eventually finding purpose in helping others.
In 2011, Kim, Glen and their children went public to courageously share Glen’s battle with Alzheimer’s. They invited filmmakers James Keach and Trevor Albert to document Glen’s Goodbye Tour, which produced the award-winning documentary Glen Campbell: I’ll Be Me. The documentary helped to break the stigma that accompanies Alzheimer’s and provides hope and comfort to families who are facing the same challenges. Ashley, a singer, songwriter and musician, appeared in the documentary, performing her debut single, “Remembering,” a deeply personal reflection about her father’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis. The song was included in the film’s soundtrack, which won two Grammy Awards.
Together, the duo has become passionate Alzheimer’s advocates. Kim launched CareLiving.org, a blog and lifestyle guide providing resources, inspiration and a sense of community to this underserved group. She also created the Kim and Glen Campbell Foundation to advance the use of “music as medicine.” Ashley also champions the healing power of music by incorporating performance into their moving presentations. At the recent opening of the Glen Campbell Museum and Rhinestone Stage (which benefits the memory care community where Glen spent his final years and the Kim and Glen Campbell Foundation), Ashley performed, paying tribute to her father.
With passion, wit, music and love, the Campbells celebrate the power of the human spirit to persevere through Alzheimer’s—while keeping their beloved husband’s and father’s memory and story alive.
