Loren (Scates) Campbell Jr. passed away at St. Francis Hospital in Wichita, KS on August 13, 2026 with his life partner Sarah Phillips by his side.

Junior was born in Wichita, KS on October 31, 1963 to Sue and Loren Campbell Sr. who both preceded him in death. His brother J.E. Scates also preceded him on January 1, 2015.

He is survived by his life partner Sarah Phillips of Derby, KS.; brothers Randy and wife Marcy of Cypress, TX and Carl and wife Pam of Eureka, KS.; nieces Nikie Scates, Kodi Scates, Katelyn Scates and Lynna Darden along with many cousins and second cousins who he loved.

Junior graduated from Eureka High School in 1982 and went on to attend Butler County CC. Once out of school he lived and worked in the Eureka area for many years before settling down in Derby, KS where he lived at the time of his death.

Junior survived a tragic motorcycle accident right after his high school graduation and had many surgeries and complications and lived most of his life in a lot of pain but never complained about it and kept a positive attitude through the years.

Junior was a gentle soul and a wonderful brother!

He requested cremation with a Celebration Of Life that may be at a later date.
