I love hearing unique stories about what a family does to create memories. Some of them are a little bizarre and not entirely normal, but people can be very creative. That is why when I heard about this story I knew I had to share it. This one is very unique and will make you feel some sort of way that’s for sure.
A group was fishing in California when they found this bottle.
It was washed up on shore.
They decided to open it.
Even though it took a little bit of work to figure it out.
They finally figured it out.
Only to discover a letter in there.
It was rolled up nicely and laminated.
And this is what they found. It read:
My name is Mel. I have 3 beautiful kids and a beautiful wife of almost 54 years when I passed. I love the ocean, deep sea fishing, abalone hunting with my 2 sons and visiting the tide pools with the whole family. Today my family is laying me to rest in a place that I love… the ocean. So, this starts my journey… if you find this message in a bottle, please go to my Facebook page, post a pic of yourself and where you found me and send me back on my journey.
Thanks and God bless – Mel’s Family
They decided to keep the journey going and sealed it back up.
And back out to sea it went.
What an incredible story. A man who loved to fish, loved the ocean, and seemed to have an amazing life will be remembered in a very unique way.
