Richard Thomas Canapp

Richard Canapp was loved by all who encountered him. He had an intoxicat­ing sense of humor, and, if you had the chance to meet him, he would be the strongest man you have ever known.
He had the ability to take on any task at hand, not just fix the problem, but found new answers. Once you became a part of his life you were never forgotten.
There was always a story behind every treasure he kept. From his guns to his trinkets, to every picture and letter.
As for his friends and family, he will be the treasure that everyone will keep.
