Geocache Description:


Legendary boxer and Louisville native Muhammad Ali passed away on June 3, 2016 in Scottsdale, Arizona.  


Funeral procession entering Cave Hill Cemetery. Note the street covered with rose petals.

On June 10, Ali's funeral was held in Louisville, KY.  A motorcade procession began at 10:35 local time and took the coffin past Ali's childhood home, the Ali Center, the Center for African American Heritage and then down Muhammad Ali Boulevard.  Fans lined the streets as the procession completed the route.  Chants of "Ali! Ali!" broke out along the route, and fans tossed rose petals on the hearse.  A memorial was held at the Yum! Center in downtown Louisville and was attended by many dignitaries including Bill Clinton, Billy Crystal, and King Abdullah of Jordan.  Pall bearers included Will Smith, Mike Tyson, and Lennox Lewis.



Ali was laid to rest in Cave Hill Cemetery and is buried at the posted coordinates.  It's a simple grave site with one of Ali's insprational quotes ... "Service to others is the rent you pay for your room in heaven."  To find the geocache, solve for the final coordinates per the below:

A = 3rd digit in year of birth

B = 2nd digit in year of birth

C = Last digit in year of death

D = Last digit in year of death + # of tablespoons of patience + # of quarts of laughter

E = # of teaspoons of generosity

F = # of pints of kindness - # of pinches of concern

 

The final container is at   N 38 14.ABC   W 085 42.DEF

You are looking for a camo'd peanut butter jar hidden on the outer edges of the cemetery, away from any gravestones.  Please be respectful of others here.  Their business is more important than yours.
