Gary W. Capsey

October 31, 1949 — April 28, 2014

MONTGOMERY - Gary W. Capsey, age 64, passed away unexpectedly Monday, April 28, 2014 at his home in Montgomery.

He was born in St. Albans on October 31, 1949 to the late Douglas & Gladys (Perotte) Capsey.

Gary was a graduate of Highgate High School class of 67. After graduation he worked as a master water well driller for over 30 years; spending time at J.A. Feeley and Gosselin well drilling. Garys most recent career started in 2004 when he went to work at Mylan Technologies in St. Albans, where he was currently employed.

His hobbies included hunting, gardening, riding his ATV through the hills of Montgomery and playing dominos. Gary was also a die-hard New York Giants and Boston Bruins fan. His most treasured past time was spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren. Gary was known as a grill master; he would only use charcoal to cook his special barbeque ribs! He will always be remembered for his sense of humor, infectious smile and practical jokes.

He is survived by his wife, Dianna (West) Capsey; 2 daughters, Karie Henry of Santa Rosa, CA and Patty Capsey of Clearwater, FL; a son, Kenneth Capsey and his wife Naomi of Highgate; his grandchildren, Christine Hunger and her husband Ian, Lance and Hunter Henry and Kaiden Capsey; his brothers, Percy Capsey and his companion, Barb King of Highgate, Stanley Capsey and his wife Margaret of Swanton and Henry Capsey and his wife Tina of Highgate; close friends, Galen & Diane Hanna of Sahuarita, AZ, Kevin & Robin Leach and Duncan Campbell all of Swanton and Todd & Heather Dumeny of Franklin and several nieces & nephews. Gary was predeceased by his parents.
