Patricia Jo Meade (Campbell)

Patricia Jo Meade (Campbell), born June 3, 1959, passed away peacefully on September 3, 2026, in Phoenix, Arizona, surrounded by her family. Known to many as “PJ,” she was truly the life of the party. She loved hiking, exploring the outdoors, and spending time with family and friends. PJ had a special way of bringing people together, and many will remember her homemade taquitos and salsa, which she lovingly shared with those around her.

PJ leaves behind her daughter, Rochelle Rankin, son-in-law Adam Rankin, her son Kelsey Meade, and her cherished grandchildren, Liliana Rankin, Austin Rankin, and Cameron Meade. She now joins the family and friends who went before her and has found peace.

A graveside memorial service will be held at Williams Cemetery on November 7, 2026, at 1:00 PM, followed by a Celebration of Life at the Sultana at 2:00 PM. An additional Celebration of Life will be held at the Rankin family house, located at 75 E. Silver Creek Rd., Gilbert, AZ 85296, on October 17, 2026, at 2:00 PM.

PJ’s laughter, warmth, and adventurous spirit will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her. Arrangements by Bunker’s Garden Chapel, www.bunkerfuneral.com.
