Geocache Description:


The Zimmerman sisters, aged 18 and 8, died only hours apart in December of 1987. I can only assume there was some sort of accident that caused it... I've googled and bing'd and yahoo'd for several days now, but cannot find any information about the girls' passing. If anyone out there knows their story, I'll give you eleventy bajillion dollars to tell me!

***UPDATE***

Thank you so much to cacher @Angela_dawn for providing me with the following information regarding the two sisters, and their brother. Truly a tragic story this family endured.

There were 3 girls in a van that was in an accident that sadly killed the sisters. Years before this had happened their father accidently ran over the girls' brother with a tractor while working the family's farm, killing him. The father has since passed away as well. Their farm was located on CR 40 between 17 and 15.

Large camo'ed pill bottle, with a little room for some small Swag.
