+Toojin Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Hi kids - I would like to get an idea of interest in a River Cacher Memorial Coin. Trying to decide how many to get made. All profits would go to his family, the suggested recipients listed in his obituary. Groundspeak has donated the cost of the icon. We welcome any comments... Quote
+Max and 99 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Sorry to have to ask the obvious, but can you tell me who River Cacher is and what the circumstances are? Love the coin idea! Quote
+fairyhoney Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 ~ Shall it have it's own ICON??? I AM SO IN ! ! ! ! Quote
+The Fossillady Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I would love to get one, coin very appropriate. Quote

+Phish_bonz Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 My prayers are with you Mike, I would be interested in some of these coins to benefit him. Quote
+grodan & fiabus Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I would like to buy one. Please count me in. This is a wonderful way to honour him, great idea. grodan Karin Quote
+keewee Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I'll buy one or two. I once had a mission from Mike. I like the design. Quote
+kini_ont Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Count me in for two, one will go on a mission Quote
+Azure Sky Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I'd definitely buy one or two. A touching tribute to a great guy. Quote
+pingos Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Great idea, I will buy two. One will go on a mission. Quote
+opalsns Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Would find a way to get one, for sure!!!!!!!! Quote
+drneal Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 interesed in a coin, but first, did his family approve the coin? ILYK Quote
+Tonyalynnm Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I'm in for 2 as well. Rivercacher was such a nice guy and really helped me when I first got started collecting Geocoins. Quote
+the4dirtydogs Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 We would love to purchase one. This is an awesome way to support his family. Quote
+avroair Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) Totally, put me down for 10. Would it be possible to put a hole in the design so we can send them out as travelers? Just a thought. Edited March 1, 2011 by avroair Quote
eseurat Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Good job...I was wondering when someone was going to do a memorial coin for him. I would like to have at least one, so I can start it out on a journey in one of River Cacher's caches or one of several memorial caches done for him in Idaho. Quote
+Zelanzy Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 interesed in a coin, but first, did his family approve the coin? ILYK I'm in if his family is OK with it as drneal mentioned. Quote
+Toojin Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 interesed in a coin, but first, did his family approve the coin? ILYK Thank you for asking this. I am trying to get messages to his brothers, but haven't gotten through yet. It is a priority. They know Geocaching and coining well and are hoping to put a cache in the cemetery in a month or so. Quote
+JoenGPS Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 We are definitely in for at least 3. A great idea. Quote
+burgessfour Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I love the coin; although the empty boat tugged at my heartstrings......I would be in for a few. Quote
Bo.T.L. Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 I'm very proud that i met Mike on GCF Twin Cities last year. I'm very unhappy now. For Mike's Memories i take 5 geocoins of course. Thanks Borek aka Bo.T.L. Cezech Geocacher and Geocoins Collector Quote

I saw that you are FB friends with Jon Wilkins, I think he is a good place to initiate contact, since he is closer to the family and can put people in touch or not as the situation merits. Quote

+LadyBee4T Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Yes I would be in for a couple. I very much like the design. I think a hole in it for traveling purposes would be very nice as avroair suggested. Quote
+Shadow's Friend Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Please add me to the list for a couple of coins. Thank you! Quote
+Toojin Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 Received green light from family this evening. We will look into putting a hole in the design to make it an easy traveler. Quote
+CCWelch Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Put me down for at least 1. Great design...I started tearing up at the empty canoe. Quote
+sweetlife Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Please add 1 for us. Great tribute for a wonderful man/friend/cacher. Quote
+Suzyfishn Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Count me in for at least 1. Thanks for putting this together Toojin! Quote
+JackHoe Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 As a bought some coins from Mike and like to support his family, I would like to buy at least one coin. Quote
JohnMac56 Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Put me down for at least five... Great design!!! and a GREAT IDEA!!! Quote
+yanagi Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 I never met River Cacher or wrote emails with him but from all I read about him he must have been a very nice person. When I read in the threads about him I often had tears in my eyes. So I will definitely buy one of these coins. Quote
+River Drango Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) I am Jon Wilkins and the family is very happy that the Geo Community is doing this. I would like to give Toojin and Lori Darlin a big HUGGERZ for making this happen! Thank you all...... Jon...AKA River Drango PS The picture is Mike (on the left) and I and our partners winning the State Dart Championship a few years back... Edited March 3, 2011 by River Drango Quote
