So sorry to hear this news about Robert. For those who are able to access the logs, could you explain what is grim about it? Is is about the access to the cache? About the search itself? Does it lend any clues to what may have happened to him that might be useful for LE?

It was his son posting that he was "gone" several hours before it started to hit the news.

It was heartbreaking to read. His son logged the cache as a DNF. Other cachers have also logged notes- those that met him and expressing condolences.
