Richard is survived by his two sons Wes (Fran) and Michael Capton (April). The two mothers of his children Shirley and Lori, three stepchildren Derek, Danny, and Christine Eberle. He is also survived by his two granddaughters Savannah and Desiree, two great grandchildren Raiden and Araya with his third Carson on the way, and his brothers Jim, George (Linda), and Gary (Ellie). Numerous nephews, nieces, and their families along with many very dear friends.

“Ricky C” worked as a Sheet Metal Mechanic in the Lethbridge and surrounding area since the mid 70’s. In his spare time, he loved to be in the outdoors camping, fishing, and hunting. In his later years his love for cooking, making sausage and jerky, and gardening consumed a lot of his time. Those that were close to “Ricky C” will always have very fond memories of his love for spending time enjoying cold Lucky’s with friends and family around a fire at his place in DC. He lived his motto “Ricky C, Old and Grey but still likes to play….” Right up to the evening of his passing.

A Celebration of Life will take place at 3:00 pm, on Saturday October 8, 2022 at the Diamond City Hall, Diamond City, Alberta
