    Just read his page... it's a weird coincidence, there was a show on HBO(?) tonight about the health crisis in this country (not the same as the healthcare crisis) with Dr Gupta of CNN fame. It was interesting, he went all over the country looking at case studies. One was in PA, one middle aged man with wife and 2 kids had killed himself due to stress of losing a good job and not being able to find another to provide for his family reliably... Dr Gupta points out high and constant stress is a major factor in health issues and suicide, and the declining middle class is playing a factor. From his bio page it sounds like he was in that scenario.

    I have just read KARLS qrz page and he seems a highly intelligent and interesting chap, i do hope there is a happy ending to all of this.
    Is there any further information and news about the search?

    Here is a link to the official report from the Northern Lancaster County Regional Police.

    KB3ZUV reported an informal search continues by family and friends, including hams, as time and resources permit.

    Maybe he just got lost in the deep woods where GPS don't work that well.

    Was searching this morning in MCWMA with several hams and other local volunteers when we were informed that a body had been found in the woods about a mile away from our search party. I am being told that KA3RCS is now a Silent Key. I was not given any further information other than that an autopsy is underway.

    He was known as n0k1a in the geocaching community and had over a thousand finds: https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?guid=2cb376f1-ffa3-4da6-b1b0-fedf6c9274bc

    Most unfortunate.

    At least his family has closure.

    RIP OM
