Dorothy Campbell

SARASOTA, Fla. — Dorothy Stokes Bostwick Campbell of Leatherstocking Farm, Cooperstown, died peacefully at her home in Sarasota, Fla., on Friday, Feb. 16, one month short of her 102nd birthday.

She was born on March 26, 1899, in New York City, the daughter of Albert C. and Marie (Stokes) Bostwick. She spent her early years in that city as well as at a family camp in the Adirondacks, in Gilbertsville, N.Y., home of her stepfather, Fitch Gilbert, and in Cooperstown, where her Stokes forebears were early settlers.

In 1921 Dorothy Bostwick married W.T. Sampson Smith, a descendant of the Campbell family of Cherry Valley, and settled at Leatherstocking Farm on Otsego Lake and in Short Hills, N.J. Mr. Smith was a builder of International Star Class racing yachts and the couple was a highly successful fixture on the domestic and international racing circuit throughout the 1920s and '30s. The Smiths were also pioneers in the field of aviation, particularly in the development of the autogyro, precursor to the modern helicopter. Mrs. Campbell was the first woman to hold a helicopter pilot's license. In 1942, that marriage ended in divorce.

In 1950 Dorothy married Joseph Campbell, vice-president and treasurer of Columbia University. Three years later they moved to  Washington, D.C., where Campbell first served as Atomic Energy Commissioner and then, following his appointment by President Eisenhower in 1954, comptroller general of the United States. There Mrs. Campbell complemented a natural ability with formal art studies, and her work has been featured in shows in  Washington and Sarasota as well as in Cooperstown, where she was instrumental in the founding of the Cooperstown Art Association. Her work is represented in the permanent collections of Mystic Seaport Museum in Mystic, Conn., the Cooperstown Art Association, the Smithy-Pioneer Gallery and in the homes of many local collectors. She also wrote and illustrated "Passing Thoughts," a collection of her own poetry and drawings, as well as an anthology of her life's artistic achievements, which was published in the early 1990s.

Throughout her life, Mrs. Campbell was committed to many charitable causes in both Cooperstown and Sarasota. These include the Cooperstown Art Association, Leatherstocking Theatre, Bassett Healthcare, Hyde Hall, Brookwood School, the Cooperstown Fire Department, Selby Gardens and Mote Marine Laboratory. Her great love of animals led to her support of the Susquehanna SPCA.

Mrs. Campbell was a member of The Field Club of Sarasota, the Cooperstown Country Club, the Lake and Valley Garden Club, the Cooperstown Art Association, the New York State Historical Association and the International Star Class Yacht Racing Association.

She is survived by two daughters, Suzanne Smith Dean of Cooperstown and Sarasota and Dorothy Smith Rudkin of Cooperstown and Lake Worth, Fla.; a daughter-in-law, Bridget D. Smith of Sarasota; a brother, Dunbar Bostwick of Shelburne, Vt.; four granddaughters, Robin Smith Butchard, Suzanne B. Dean, Mercedes Rudkin Gotwald and Cory Smith Moffat; three grandsons, Randall Dean, Thomas Dean and James Sheldon-Dean; four stepsons and three stepdaughters-in-law, Douglas and Sandra Campbell, Robert and Barbara Campbell, Colin and Nancy Campbell and Frederick Campbell; and 41 great-grandchildren.

Mrs. Campbell was predeceased by both of her husbands and by two sons, W.T. Sampson Smith Jr., who died in 1994, and Henry S. Smith, who died in infancy; a stepson, Alan Campbell; two brothers, Albert "Brother" Bostwick and George "Pete" Bostwick; a sister, Lillian Bostwick Phipps; and a grandson, Henry Rudkin Jr.

A memorial service will be held in June in Cooperstown. In lieu of flowers, gifts may be made in her memory to the Cooperstown Art Association, 22 Main Street, Cooperstown, N.Y. 13326, the Susquehanna SPCA, 4841 State Highway 28, Cooperstown, N.Y. 13326, or to Hospice of Southwest Florida, 5955 Rand Boulevard, Sarasota, Fla. 34238.
