Agnetha Fältskog, the golden voice of ABBA who has so often chosen silence over spectacle, has spoken out with rare emotion in response to the passing of Judge Frank Caprio, the beloved Rhode Island jurist known as “the nicest judge in the world.” With grace and compassion, she extended her condolences to his family, sending love and prayers during their time of sorrow.
For Agnetha, who has lived much of her life in private, such a message carries extraordinary weight. Her words were simple but full of heart. “My thoughts are with Judge Caprio’s family,” she said. “In moments of grief, love is what sustains us. I send them my prayers, my sympathy, and my deepest respect.”

She through music that captured the deepest emotions of love and loss; he through moments of kindness that showed justice could be merciful as well as firm.
In extending her sympathy, Agnetha reminded the world that grief is not borne alone. It is softened when shared, dignified when honored, and eased by the love of others. Her words, though brief, carried a resonance that comforted not only the Caprio family but countless others who admired both figures in their own way.
