His brother, Paul, who runs the FOX technology department, helped tell his story with Christal Young.
In 2003, he won the title of "Pastry Chef of the Year" and was the youngest and first pastry chef ever to sweep the competition. Chef Artem Orlovskyy remembers him as patient and kind. They worked side by side for five years at Lincoln Ristorante in Lincoln Center. Chef Orlovskyy says, no matter how busy he was, he always had time to teach others.
Gretchen Witt calls him "beyond dynamic." She's the founder of the 15-year-old non-profit Cookies for Kids Cancer. She met Chef Capizzi years before his diagnosis when her son, Liam, was battling cancer. She recalls a man who always gave of himself freely -- the type of guy who literally would give you the shirt off his back.
