My sincerest condolences, Mr. Capek was my science and photography teacher. He helped this troubled kid stay busy and care about grades at Churchville 79-82. R.i.p and thank you mr capek for all your mentoring
There was no student that went through Churchville Junior High that didn’t come away with great admiration and respect for Mr. Capek. He was a beloved teacher and tremendous educator. His impact on thousands of students through the years is his beautiful legacy. Godspeed, Mr. Capek, heaven has a place for you. You will be missed here. Mark Ambrose – Churchville Class of 1973
