SSgt William "Bo" Capella

My friend, William "Bo" Capella passed away Friday morning, June 1st in Italy. Bo was killed in a car accident on the way to a car race, that is how we met. He was serving in the Security Forces, United States Air Force. Bo was just 25 years old. The tears I shed is because Bo was a respectful, passionate, funny young man with the loveliest personality and many people love him. He made friends easily and held them close to his heart. We often joked about my SF vs his SF! He immersed himself in the Italian culture & lived life to the fullest. His life was ended too soon. I will always miss him. My heart goes out to his family & friends at this very sad time. I am HONORED to have known Bo!

R.I.P. Bo


Drive safe my friends...life can be too short.

God Bless,Rest in Peace Warrior.....

He was just a simple soldier and his ranks are growing thin
But his presence should remind us; we may need his like again,
For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier's part
Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.
If we cannot do him honor while he's here to hear the praise,
Then at least let's give him homage at the ending of his days.......
Perhaps just a simple headline in the paper that might say:
OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING, FOR A SOLDIER DIED TODAY. (author unknown)

The passing of our soldiers often go unnoticed and unsung by most of the world, remembered only by family and friends. Wish it were not so. May he RIP, his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.........

I realize it's a Canadian song,however I believe most appropriate for this occasion...

Rest in Peace, SSgt. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. You will ALWAYS be missed and NEVER forgotten. Give my son a hug and tell him I will see him soon.
