Not sure what to say?

Dear Trevor, Susan and the rest of the Capon family,

I was terribly sad to hear about Ken's passing. It had of course been many years since I had seen him last. But of course I'd known him since Trevor and I were all of about 6 years old going to Berwick Academy. I'm not the best with words, but I can always remember Ken being a happy, laughing and smiling man. And that's how I'll remember him. I think that's a good way to be remembered.

My thoughts and prayers are with...

God Bless you all and guide you at this sad and difficult time.........

To the Capon family,
Mr. Capon was my teacher at Conant High, but he was much more than a teacher. He was my mentor, my adviser, and my friend. He was there for me when my mom passed in 1967 and again when my brother passed in 1975. Goddess bless you all. Mr. Capon is the teacher I remember with the fondest memories. Class of 1972

Dear Sue & Trevor,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. What fond memories we have of Ken over all the years, starting with Berwick Academy. One of the best memories of Ken that stands out is him standing outside in the cold, with his little Santa hat on ringing the bell for the Salvation Army during the Christmas season. He always had his signature smile. He had wonderful values that one rarely sees in a person to-day. I know that he will be missed - but what great...

Our thoughts and prayer are with you during this differcult time."Mr. Capon" was my History teacher at Conant High. Passed all my College history classes because of him, I'm sorry to hear of his passing. Conant High Class of 1974

I wish I had met him 20 years ago. We had much in common - he was a kindred spirit. The time that I did have to get to know him remains precious to me. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sue and Trevor,
We are so very sorry to hear of your loss. We remember with great fondness, Ken's irrepresible smile and interest in the boys at Cardigan and St George's- he will be missed but what an honor it was to know him. Beth and Nick Steffey

Trevor and Carrie,
We are so sorry for your recent loss. You are in our thoughts.

Every payday I would trek to the Portsmouth Circle to visit Ken and drop my donation. He always had a smile and kind word, spoke lovingly of family and friends and was simply a joy. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. He will be missed by many more than you can imagine.
