DONIPHAN, Mo. — Elizabeth Ann Tanner Capps passed away in her home in Doniphan, Missouri Dec. 12, 2020.

Elizabeth was born in Doniphan Jan. 27, 1950 to Wilfred and Vivian (Slayton) Tanner.

Mrs. Capps was proceeded in death by her parents, a nephew, Rick Tanner, and great-niece, Nicole Tanner.

Surviving is her husband, Mark Capps; her daughter, Betsy (Rick) Donnell; and a grandson, Damon Donnell. She is also survived by her brothers and sisters, Jim (Vicki) Tanner, Sara (Mike) Cronin, and Scott (Paula) Tanner, and many very beloved nieces and nephews.

A small, family only service will be held at a later date.
