This cache is dedicated to the memory of my mother who reached out to so many people with a smile. She had many truths that played apart in all of our lives. I know your spirit will always be with us.!! My hope is that these truths will speak to you and help you all heal as you mourn the loss of a person who meant so much to so many. She would greet strangers with a smile and open arms for a hug. Her pals were always for life. She was the Queen of worry for her friends and family. Mom was an amazing woman who belonged to the most amazing Lord. She was easy to take for granted because she was always there. She always gave 110% to her kids and everything she did with us. Even though she would brush them off with a gesture, so she could instead focus upon the next need. We need to grieve our loss and weep the tears that come with it. Cry for as long as you need and place your words to her in this log book, for your tears will cease when you no longer need to shed them. My hope is that your tears and words will carry away the difficult details of mom's death, so that while you (like I) can never forget them, we can instead focus on the countless joy-filled memories of laughter, of happiness, and pleasant times that came with being a part of a wonderful friend. I will cherish what she taught me, and will hold dear the memories of the love she lavished upon my wife and my children. I am thankful for the love she placed in my heart and instilled in everyone. I am proud to be her son, and I am proud to be part of the large Geocaching Family she so dearly loved. With the passing of my father I am adding a tribute to this cache for him as well. They broke the mold when my father was created. He always kept me guessing and I learned from his positive and negative influence. He was all all out prankster in his time and I have taken over this legacy. I will miss the hikes and caching adventures that I went on with my parents., but I will always have the Geocaching memories. I love and miss the both of you. Now you can RAGE ON together forever.
A Mother's love is something
that no one can explain,
It is made of deep devotion
and of sacrifice and pain,
It is endless and unselfish
and enduring come what may For" nothing can destroy it
or take that love away . . .
It is patient and forgiving
when all others are forsaking,
And it never fails or falters
even though the heart is breaking . . .
It believes beyond believing
when the world around condemns,
And it glows with all the beauty
of the rarest, brightest gems . . .
It is far beyond defining,
it defies all explanation,
And it still remains a secret
A many special miracle
man cannot understand
And another wondrous evidence
of God's tender guiding hand.
WE MISS YOU AND WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER!!! I KNOW YOUR SPIRIT WILL PLACE A SMILE ON ALL WHO VISIT YOU!!! srt="http://i62.tinypic.com/se3x45.jpg" align="left" width="243" height="208"
