Dr Cappa was our family dentist for years and there is no one else like him. Thorough, gentle and amazing skill. He was also a good and true friend of my own dad Hugh Cree. When my dad died, Dr Cappa would see me out in public and always came over to see how I was and if I needed anything. So genuine and a true gentleman. Rest well sir. You have made the lives of so many others a lot better in all areas of your life

Dianne, we are so sorry to hear of Fil's passing. He wasn't one to sit idly by,,, well noted. His association with the Western Ontario Dental Study Group allowed for many social interactions with his fellow dentists in London and area. We will always have fond memories of the many luncheons and dinners shared with you and Fil when it was "Couples' Time to Dine" for the WODSG. With our sincere condolences to you and all of Fil's family. Carol and Ken

Wes Dunn posted a condolence
Dear Dianne and Family I was deeply saddened when I read, this morning, of Fil's passing. I am so, so sorry. Fil was a true giant in our profession and he will be sorely missed. It has not been given to many to have made such magnificent contributions both within the profession and to society at large. It is my profound regret that I have an out-of-town commitment, from Friday until Tuesday and, therefore, am unable to attend the service planned for Saturday. Please accept my most profound and heartfelt sympathy. As a tribute to Fil, I am making a donation to Mission Services of London, an agency which enormously benefited from Fil's dedicated involvement for so many years.

Dr. Cappa was my dentist for many years until he retired. I so appreciated the exemplary care that he gave me and his gentle, competent approach to an experience that can be uncomfortable. He made a difference in my life and I am sure in the lives of many of his patients. I am very sorry for his loss from your lives. We were all fortunate to have him touch our lives.

Karl Hermann posted a condolence
Fil was a great man! I have fond memories of "Dr. Cappa" as a child. He was a great next-door neighbour; always greeting me with a smile when I saw him and asking how my day was going. I happily received a new toothbrush every year at halloween! I think that hearing Fil and his "music buddies" play in their back yard every once in a while had an influence on me choosing to be a professional trombone player. As a founding member of Brassroots, I am so thankful for all his tireless efforts for that group over 3 decades, and indeed his support of music in London in general. RIP Fil. Thanks for being you! Donation will be made to the Ken Hermann Sr. Palliative Care fund via London Community Foundation. (I believe Fil would have approved!)
