Deep Sympathy in the loss of such a special man. Richard was a great neighbor and friend. My heart goes out to all the family. Prayers for peace and comfort at this most difficult time. He and Bonnie always made me and my daughter feel like apart of a great neighborhood. I owned Ralph and Fredia Jetts old home for about fifteen years or more. However, I meet Richard, years before, when he and my father-in-law (Winston Easley) were car pooling into RRAD. He and Bonnie will always have a place in my heart. GOD be with you, Terri and Hal, so sorry I was unable to attend the services.

Mr. Capson was one of several good men in New Boston who sacrificed their time to instill character in the young men of Troop 36. His calm demeanor, organized approach, and the love he shared for the outdoors enriched the lives of many boys during the early seventies. Terri and Hal, I am truly sorry for your loss, and I thank you for sharing this wonderful man with others. He left a marvelous legacy.

Terri and Hal, I am sorry for your loss. Richard was a good man. He loved Bonnie and you two so much and so proud of all that you did. We had great times growing up and he was always around encouraging us all. He loved to aggravate me and I loved giving it back to him...all in love. He will be missed. Memories are forever though. Love and prayers for you all. Geri
