This Geocache is dedicated to my wife Jennifer and her beautiful daughter Kaley Lynn as she passed away before the age of 3 from bacterial meningitis. I have placed and submitted this cache for review on 5/19/2018. This would have been Kaley Lynn’s birthday today and was surely a tragedy the day that she passed. She was a beautiful little girl and was loved by all who had the pleasure of seeing her light up a room. May she rest in peace and always run into the wind with her arms outspread. That’s what she loved to do.
How will you be remembered when your time on earth is passed? This cache honors all of those who have passed that have accomplished the incredible, to be remembered well after they have gone. This is my way of honoring all of those who have made a difference in so many lives.
I put this puzzle cache together because there are so many different ways that you can be memorialized. You have walked or driven past these memorials so many times without a thought or a care as to whom these dedications involve. This is your chance to appreciate these memorials the way that I do every day. Have you yourself made enough of a difference in your community to have one of these dedications in your honor? Were you an officer in the service? A priest or minister in your church? A park bench in your name in honor of the joy you have given a loved one? A simple headstone? A scoreboard dedication? Did you enlighten people with just a smile? Or were you inconceivably taken before your time at the mercy of a tragic event or sickness?
You will need to visit all of the 60 places I have given as waypoints on the map. Go to the listed coordinates, find the person that I have named and write down the year they have passed. Plug these dates into my reasonably simple math equation and you will find the final cache. An ammo can loaded with goodies. Teamwork is allowed but try to visit as many of these sites as possible. There is a lot of architectural history within this puzzle cache to make a difference in the way you see life.
Always remember to be considerate of others, some of these places you will visit are cemeteries while others are plaques or dedications in various urban places around town.
Get all 60 dates of passing to all of the lives that I am memorializing and add all of them up. The total sum of all dates will look something like this "ABC,XYZ"
Plug in the numbers to the letters appropriately and the final Coordinates of the cache will be at

Final Cache N 42° 00.000 W 072° 00.000
There are many very interesting stories behind every one of these memorials. If you like history, do yourself a favor and you can check many of these out online.
Final cache is a nice ammo can type container placed on private property with permission from the home owner. If in some way that you are able to retrieve all of the 60 dates of passing, you will still need the combination lock sequence. The title of the geocache placed at these coordinates was called George Carlin, my favorite comedian that I was lucky enough to see at a local venue before his passing. Multiply by 60 and you have the combo.
