Not sure what to say?

I just found out about Francis , who was so kind to me after my husbands passing.
I will miss him dearly as my son Justin, will also .....I send my condolenscence to the family who even in my distant travels have always thought of as being kind and so very generouse....when I think of my home in VT , I think of the Capens. Sending love and blessings from Thailand and so happy you picked me up on RT 30 last year for my special moment with you folks.

Sorry for your family loss. I will miss his wonderful smile. His lil stories and picking on people. It was very strange not having him come through the door at newfane bingo Saturday. I kept expecting him to come through the door

I'm sorry for your loss. My grandmother was Lila Capen West, she passed away at 100 a year ago and was born near Jamaica, just north of there in the town on Rt. 30 at the base of Stratton Mtn, access road, I think the town is called Winhall. Her mother was Cressie Carruth Capen and her father was Ernest Capen. We probably are related, but I do not have any genealogy up from Ernest and Cressie. We come from good people and Francis looks like a sweet man. Although I'm a stranger to you,...

I AM VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. HE WAS A KIND MAN WITH A GREAT SMILE. MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL AT THIS DIFFICULT TIME. LOVE AND PRAYERS, SAM CHILDS AND MARY(CHILDS) TIER
