Bobby Capers

I have always enjoyed saxophonist Bobby Capers' playing. I have most of his records with Mongo Santamaria and the Latin Jazz Quintet, found a small number of studio dates and the info he played but obviously never recorded with Max Roach. The stuff he recorded with his sister, the esteemed pianist/composer Valerie Capers remained unissued and is probably lost forever, as well as a session as a leader for Atlantic.

I read on some web pages on his sister that he died, but cannot find any details.

Does anybody here know when he died, the circumstances and wether he recorded anything more than the stuff mentioned above?

I consider writing his discography and would be grateful for any biographic/discographic detail.
