This day is a day thats affected the hole geocaching community among my family. MY father 1701eh passed away comming home from the 2006 harvestfest after being hit by a car. It's really got me dedicated to carry on his caches and to make sure his adventure lives on. All of his friends on here you guys really ment alot to him and hopefully in the near future we can do some caching together. It's really made my want to continue in his steps stronger and for me its comforting to know its something he loved, my sister made a little joke to try and cheer her self up"he's in heaven with his gps probably already at 300 up there" I think it was really inspiring as it was the one thing he lvoed the most to do with his time, it was my time with him, all the good memories and things i have to remember him by. I look to buttons&beau, dr.clean, trimblestrek, amazon annie, res2100, cheerios, reto rangers and everyone else who knew him as a friend of mine. You guys made his time caching something he looked forward to no matter the situation. He was always the one to do the craziest caches and solve the hardest puzzles ( i wonder how imma get most of my caches now he was the brains:P)but yes so many good memories and i really believe he died happy. His account im hopefully going to take over and carry on with but for most of the caches im wanting to pass them onto the people I listed as a thanxs and a way to remember him. His travel bugs will be distributed to caches around my area hopefully soon and a memorial cache im going to hopefully have out after we settle down and get things as close to normal as we can(i would liek some help for the cache if possible) but yea this was 1701eh's final mission and I really believe he did "boldly go where no man has gone before". Rest in peace dad and godspeed.
Love ya, Allan(cruise448788)
thank you everyone else for all you're support its a real rough time for the near future but with all the care and thoughts everyone has shared i think it will really help us to go on.
