Judge Frank Caprio Dead at 88

Frank Caprio, a judge from Rhode Island, passed away at the age of 88 after a long battle with prostate cancer. Caprio is remembered for his kindness he showed to every person, from a speeding ticket to missed payments and everything in between. He was a reality judge star on Caught in Providence.

On his Instagram page, David, his son, eulogized his father as he should be remembered.

Beloved around the world for his deep compassion, humility, and unwavering faith in the goodness of people, Judge Caprio touched millions through his work in the courtroom and even more through his example of humanity.

His warmth, humor, and kindness left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him or hearing his words.

He will be remembered not only as a respected judge but as a loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend. His legacy lives on in the countless lives he uplifted and the kindness he inspired.

In his memory, may we all strive to lead with more empathy, more understanding, and more heart, just as he did every single day.

In February, Caprio released a memoir as he reflected on his career as a judge with lessons learned from his time as a judge in Providence.

He does remind us to "Be kind to people and take care of your families."

May Judge Frank Caprio rest in the loving arms of Christ.
