testimonial for David Mac Donald (2024)

My husband recently lost weight and had been noticing his rings were fitting less tightly than before but didn’t think they were in danger of falling off. After a date in Ventura, we stopped at Solimar beach and played fetch with our dog,

Poppy, enjoying the beautiful day by the water. When we returned home, Bryn was dismayed to discover his wedding ring was gone. We searched everywhere, digging through piles of dirty clothes and under car seats, but to no avail.

We were sure we’d lost it forever and were truly heartbroken as this was a custom ring that was filled with sentimental value. Crestfallen, I tossed and turned one night until 2 am, frantically googling “lost rings in Ventura” praying that someone had located it and turned it in. Suddenly, an advertisement for the ring finders in Ventura popped up and I clicked on it.

Completely sure that the ring could not be recovered but still hopeful, we reached out the following morning. Dave answered our call and found our ring in about an hour, despite the ring being lost for several days at this point. Dave was caring, thoughtful, and went above and beyond to bring this priceless ring home to us. When my husband picked up the ring, Dave went a step further, praying over my husband and blessing him with his spiritual counsel.

We are truly indebted to Dave and would highly recommend you call The Ring Finders. They are like magic!

My wife and I are so thankful to Sean Kelly for recovering my wedding ring...

testimonial for Sean Kelly (2024)

Hi Sean,

I wanted to thank you again for locating and recovering my lost wedding ring. I would like to offer a small gesture of my appreciation by leaving a review testimonial for other future unfortunate people that lose something special, that are fortunate to come across your information on Ring Finders.

A annual summer 4th of July party at my wife's best friend's parent's lake house on Bunganut Lake in Lyman ME went from an awesome celebration, to a nightmare. After applying sunblock on my kids and swimming for a couple hours, I was sitting on the dock and realized my wedding ring was gone. I never felt it come off so it could be anywhere in the area surrounding the dock that I had been swimming in. With no goggles, the search was a bust.

After a sleepless night running the entire afternoon through my head tracing every spot I swam and rock I sat on, I knew I had to go back and search again. So I gathered goggles, snorkel, fins, and purchased underwater flashlights. Being over 2.5 hours away the next opportunity to return was a month later. I free dived down and searched around until I was blue in the face, with no luck.

Our friend's father informed me that the lake dam is opened the end of the Fall and the water level drops a couple of feet so I had hope to return once more and give it a final go. In preparing for it I realized the water temp would be very cold and be an issue. I realized I needed a better plan if there was a chance of getting my wedding ring back. I searched for metal detecting and scuba diving and found the Ring Finders website. This was the turning point of my luck!

I reached out to Sean Kelly and he called me right back. We realized he was 115 miles away, but he said it didn't matter and would come out anyway and even offered to go out right away. I mentioned we were planning to go up there the following Sunday and that I could better explain the area I swam and the higher probability areas. Sean was able to come and meet us there that Sunday to search. I could tell Sean was a nice guy that was passionate about searching for treasure and the joy of reuniting people with their lost, cherished items.

Sean pulled up two minutes after we arrived with all of his scuba gear and top of the line metal detecting equipment. I was very optimistic of the search and showed Sean the dock and whereabouts of my swimming area. We soon realized one difficulty in this search was the lower section of the floating dock had already been taken in for the season, so gauging the locations was now compromised in addition to now murkier water. Sean pointed out another complication which was the very large boulders and rocks that could allow the ring to slide into a crevice at the bottom and be difficult to not only get a reading with the detector, but also having to potentially move the big boulders. Sean ensured me that we would move these boulders one way or another if we had to, and I could tell he was serious.

Sean got geared up and jumped right in. After over an hour of canvasing a grid pattern of the areas I was pointing out and giving reference to, Sean came to the dock needing to replace his air tank. He maintained hope and perseverance. As we approached the second hour Sean was going back over the areas a 2nd and 3rd time and was probing around all of the boulders with his smaller handheld detector to get into tighter areas that his larger precision detector couldn't access. Just as I was beginning to lose hope and was going to tell Sean that he gave a valiant effort and that I didn't want him to waste any more of his time and oxygen tank continuing, knowing he had a long drive back home. I know he wouldn't have gave up however, as he was determined to find it. He then got a hit under the edge of a massive 5 ft boulder, It turned out to just be a piece of wire. But his detector continued to ping on something, he searched and probed around further and bingo, he pulled out my wedding ring!

Sean never gave up on the search, and was determined to find my ring. Afterwards we relaxed for a little and ate some pizza and I got to know Sean more. Sean is a genuinely kind and friendly person. He is the sort of person that goes out of his way to help a stranger out, as that is exactly what he did for me. Giving up an entire Sunday to come and help out a stranger. He isn't doing it for money as he doesn't charge anything more than gas money to come out. He is simply passionate about metal detecting and being able to help people out. His experience and detecting skills is evident with my ring back on my finger. Sean's character and helping nature is top tier. My wife and I are so thankful to Sean Kelly for recovering my wedding ring. I know exactly who to call if something like this ever happens to me and anyone I know.

Thank you so much again Sean!

Thank you Joe! You are the best!

testimonial for Joe Au-Franz (2024)

I’m so glad I reached out to Joe.! He was expeditious in his search and mailing the ring to me. I wasn’t even going to reach out as I thought this was a needle in a haystack situation. I couldn’t believe when I got off the flight that Joe had found it. I was shocked an extremely grateful! I am so glad I connected with Joe! Thank you Joe! You are the best!
