Geocache Description:

Placed in Northern Cemetery in the middle of Smithfield, Ohio.

Pap-Pap Zappone was my Great-Grandfather & he died when I was 16 years old. He came to America from Italy with my Great-Grandmother. Pap-Pap didn't speak much English... In fact, I'm not sure I understood 95% of it. He loved this country and his family though, and he lived to be nearly 100 years old!!! Only 6 weeks short, but sharp to the end!

3 Generations of Cachin' Strattons placed this cache at once while out on a scouting mission, so to speak. It is a small cache with room for some trades. Please be respectful of cemetery visiting hours.

I'm including a stage 1 waypoint that is an optional visit. It is the location of the grave, itself, if you would like stop and say "Hi" to Pap-Pap & Mum-Mum.

Enjoy your visit.
