Rest eternal grant to him, O Lord;
And let light perpetual shine upon him.

May his soul, and the souls of all the departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Sorry to hear this. The entire Capel family has had a big impact on basketball in the State of NC from playing and coaching. Capel Sr left a huge legacy.

K's comments on Capel's passing.

"Today, we mourn the passing of an outstanding coach and role model in our sport. Jeff Capel, Jr. had such a positive impact on so many people throughout his life. However, his greatest living legacies are his sons, Jeff III and Jason, who have represented their respective institutions and their entire family with dignity and class. All of us associated with Duke Basketball, and specifically the Krzyzewski family, offer our deepest condolences to the Capels during this difficult time."

Prayers to the entire Capel family. RIP Mr. Capel. while you gave us a lot in the wonderful world of college basketball, your greatest gift was the way you raised your two sons. They have become fine young men and we are blessed to have them. May God bless the Capel family.
