Dale was a Vietnam Veteran, surviving three tours and earning countless medals for his service. He is remembered by family as a supportive and dedicated man, a wonderful grandfather, brother and father in law, uncle and a hero to be remembered.
He is preceded in death by his sons William Richard Capps and Barry Allen Capps, his father Richard Frederick Capps Sr., his mother Azilee Livengood Capps Cox, his stepfather William “Bill” Roscoe Cox, and sister-in-law Martha Key Capps, niece Debra Ann Capps.
He is survived by his two grandchildren Sophia Edelblute Capps and Isabel Edelblute Capps, his brother Richard Frederick Capps Jr., and nieces Cherri Capps Brown and Shela Capps Holms.
A celebration of life will be held for family members on November 12, 2022, in North Carolina. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Wounded Warrior Project in his name are appreciated.
