Geocache Description:

My wife Amy and I were just starting to get into geocaching when she suddenly died in a traffic accident back in 2013. I have been increasing my find total quite a bit lately so now it’s time for my first hide. I decided it is fitting to have Amy be a part of it, and I know she would like this. So here it is, a moderately challenging puzzle for you to solve, and by doing so, you will get to know a very special woman, and as a bonus, see a great view of my hometown, Latrobe, PA.


The coordinates listed will take you to St. Mary’s Cemetery and Amy’s final resting place.  Take your smart phone, as there is a QR code on her side of the tombstone for you to scan.   This will take you to Amy’s Memory Links’ memorial website, where you will need to read her Biography in order to answer the following set of questions.    The answers to these questions will give you the DEGREE, MINUTES, SECONDS coordinates to the actual nearby geocache where you can simply sign the log book.   There are pencils inside. Congrats to Lucky7 for being the FTF!   Thanks for the visit.  Amy's Husband
