Geocache Description:

A simple field puzzle involving a couple of touching tributes.  Please note that the cache is NOT hidden at the posted coordinates.


I have driven past this park many times over the years.  I finally decided to check it out when I realized that there was no cache hidden here.  As soon as I entered the park I came upon a pair of tributes to a couple of people that were taken far too soon.  They were both lost in different ways, but both should probably touch your heart.

The posted coordinates will bring you to the parking area for Triangle Park.  Once you are here, please find the tributes to Nancy and Kevin.  Use the information that you find on those tributes to solve the puzzle below.  Then take a leisurely walk to the site of the cache so you can log in.

Final coordinates are 40 46.ABC 73 30.DEF

A = The number that appears the most times on Nancy's tribute.

B = Sum of the digits in Kevin's age when he died.

C = Number of letters in Nancy's daughter's name.

D = Number of sports mentioned on Kevin's tribute.

E = Number of letters in the last word of the quote on Kevin's tribute.

F = According to the poem, the number of things that Nancy is.
