Dawson A. "Doc" Campbell, long time co-op observer in Gila Hot Springs, passed away on May 11, 1998. Dawson (DOC) Campbell was presented the  "John Campanius Holm Award" in November 1990 and the "Thomas Jefferson Award" in October 1996.  Doc's wife, Ida, and other members of Doc's family continue to operate the co-op station at Gila Hot Springs, which has been in existence for over 45 years.

Doc Campbell was one of the first people to settle in the Gila Wilderness in 1919. He and his new wife began a family ranch in 1920 and that family operation continues today.
