NORTH WEBSTER – Richard David Capps, known as Rick to his family and friends, passed away unexpectedly on June 26, 2023, at his home.
He was born on Dec. 25, 1973, in Muncie, to his mother, Barbara Emery Capps; and father, David Alvin Capps. Rick graduated from Muncie South Side High School and furthered his studies at UCLA and Ball State.
Rick worked hard to build a successful career and opened the John Perry Salon in Indianapolis with Amy, his best friend, and lifetime companion. He served as manager for the salon and took great pride in seeing it thrive. Those who worked with him respected him greatly for both his professional skills as well as his care and support for them.
It was during high school that he met Amy Cross Capps who became the love of his life. They shared everything - including prom, college days - and later married at High Street United Methodist Church in Muncie on July 1, 1995. Together they spent 31 happy years including fanatically attending Pacers, Colts and Cubs games.
Sadly two months ago, Rick lost the love of his life when Amy passed away on April 22, 2023. It is much to our grief to announce that Rick couldn’t bear this pain any longer than to live without her.
Rick is survived by his father, David Capps, of Springport; and nephews: Blake Miles, of Greenwood; Alex Miles, of Indy; and Cameron Short, of Pendleton. In addition to wife, Amy; his mother, Barbara Emery Capps; and sister, Tina Lynn Short, preceded him in passing.
Titus Funeral Home of North Webster is entrusted with arrangements. A graveside service will take place at Mocks Cemetery in North Webster on Wednesday, July 5 at Noon. A time of fellowship will follow at Leesburg United Methodist Church, 111 W. Prairie St., Leesburg, following the service.
Memorial gifts may be made to the Church at the address above.
