Edmund D. Cappuccilli

Services will be limited to immediate family members only. A celebration of Ed's life will be scheduled for a later date.

On March 7, 2020, Ed’s giving and generous heart suddenly and sadly stopped beating. Ed, beloved husband of Judy Cappuccilli of 43 years, and Doggie Daddy to Maddie and Rusty, was born in Fall River, Massachusetts on May 2, 1943 to the late Elizabeth Tavares and Edmund D. Cappuccilli, Sr.

He is survived by his brother Michael [Lisa], and nieces and nephews, Joshua Cappuccilli [Karen], Tommaso Vannelli [Sabrina], and Liz, Jessie, and Joe Cappuccilli.

Ed grew up in Warren, RI, the eldest of four children, including Michael, Peter, and Mary Lou. He graduated from the University Of Rhode Island and served in the US Army. Upon honorable discharge, he completed a Master’s degree in Organic Chemistry at the University Of Maryland. For the next 37 years, Ed worked for the Federal Government, with the Environmental Protection Agency for the first few years, and ended his distinguished career as a senior analyst with the US International Trade Commission.

In 1977, Ed married Judy, the love of his life. Together, they enjoyed many interests, including boating, golfing, gardening, travel, and volunteer work with the Rotary Club of Prince George’s County.  Ed enjoyed helping with both community service projects and fundraising projects, including more than 15 years working at a concession stand at FED Ex Field during Redskins home games.

Ed was a Rotary Paul Harris Fellow, and along with Judy, they were major donors to The Rotary Foundation. Ed also loved auctions, the art of the deal, and collecting lots of Stuff! Ed, a kind, gentle, and generous man was blessed with many friends who already miss him greatly.

Visitation is scheduled for Saturday, March 21, 2020 at Beall Funeral Home, and is unfortunately restricted to immediate family due to State of MD mandated restrictions associated with Coronavirus. There will be a celebration of Ed’s life, later when restrictions are lifted. Please check this website for updates. A mass of Christian Burial will take place on May 2, 2020 at 10AM at St. Alexander Catholic Church, 221 Main Street, Warren Rhode Island 02885, followed by burial in his family’s plot in St Alexanders Cemetery. Donations can be made, in memory of Ed, to The Rotary Club of Prince George’s County Foundation, c/o Sharon Tolliver Wilson, PO Box 782, Lanham, MD 20703, or Disaster Aid USA, 9817 Lanham Severn Road, Lanham, MD 20706.
