James Burl Capps, 73, of Indianapolis, Indiana, passed away peacefully on November 15, 2023. Born on August 25, 1950, in Burkesville, Kentucky, Burl was a beloved husband, father, brother, and friend.

In his early years, Burl was a skilled boxer and had a deep love for sports. He was also an avid fisherman and hunter. In his later years, however, Burl most often could be found on the couch, enjoying his favorite TV shows and playing with his beloved dog.
