Billy Capehart Obituary
Billy dedicated many years to his work as a maintenance technician at Rockwell Industries, where his reliability and hardworking spirit were appreciated by colleagues and friends alike. Outside of work, Billy was a passionate man who enjoyed woodworking, auto painting, and working in his garden.
A devoted father and grandfather, Billy took pleasure in taking his kids and grandkids fishing, always eager to share the thrill of the catch. Fridays were particularly special as he would spoil his grandchildren with king-sized candy, pizza, and movie nights, creating lasting memories that will forever warm their hearts.
We invite family and friends to celebrate Billy's life in a visitation on February 4, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Cooper-Sorrells Funeral Home in Bonham. A funeral service will be held in honor of his legacy on February 5, 2026, at 2:00 PM at Living Word Church of God in Bonham with Dwayne Evors officiating, with internment following at Fannin Memorial Gardens.
