I am so glad that I had several chances to visit with Uncle Cap at the family reunion last year in Rockdale, and in 1999 in San Antonio. It was wonderful to see and honor him, along with our other senior uncles and aunts.
Uncle Cap, as we've called him since I can remember, was 96 years old. He loved the Lord, he attended church, and now he has gone home to claim his rewards. May God wipe away the tears, and turn sad thoughts to joy and thankfulness for Uncle Cap's long, and blessed life with us.
Love to the family, tjjohnson
