Thursday November 17th Kevan was playing Rugby and lost his wedding ring, it was dark when he discovered it gone. The next day he returned with a friend and a metal detector, they had no luck locating the ring. His wife Juliane heard about me from a friend Christine (  https://theringfinders.com/blog/Don.Marshall/page/2/  )  I had recovered her husbands wedding ring 3 years before.

Juliane called me and I went to the park Friday afternoon, no luck. After getting more details I returned Saturday am and recovered the ring.

Chris was fly fishing in the Sooke River outside Victoria B.C. On Saturday October 15th, he got a fish on and was fighting this mature Salmon when he felt his Wedding Ring fall off. Now this is bad news but it gets worse, Chris was a newly wed only 7 weeks married and he losses his wedding ring.

Monday Chris did a Google search and came up with my name on THE Ring Finders web site.

We arranged to return to the River Tuesday at noon. After a short hike and a wade in the river, I got that strong tone, FOUND IT!

Chris screamed to the other fisherman, we found it, everyone was in shock. I so love my job!

Lost Wedding Ring found and returned years later

Hi,
My name is Susan and I saw the ad where you’ve found several rings from elk lake. I’m hoping my husband’s was among them.
A couple of years ago, he lost his original wedding band in elk lake while we were swimming. It would have been around the Hamsterly beach area.

The ring itself is really nothing special to look at…it’s just a large (like men’s size 12-14) round silver band with a bit of a round the overall shape (if that makes any sense). Although it’s not very expensive or anything special to look at, it holds HUGE sentimental value to him. It was the original ring we were supposed to marry with 16 years ago…then we parted ways for a while; however, we got back together and have now been married for 12 happy years.

I know it’s a long shot but I’m hoping this is one of the rings you’ve come across. I would love to surprise him with it.

Thanks for posting this ad and doing this for people. It’s a very kind thing to do.

Cheers, Susan

Live ~ Laugh ~ Love=

Yes I had recovered this ring 2 years ago and today I was able to reunite it with Susan and Rob.

Lost Friday June 26th 2015  Recovered Monday June 29th 2015

I (Paul) lost my custom wedding ring last Friday at Durrance lake when I was at the waters edge with my son and I was throwing away a piece of fish bait my son had picked up. I only heard the sound of the ring hitting the water and couldn’t tell where it went. Incredibly Don was able to locate it three days later twenty feet from shore in less then ten minutes!

The hunt required my trusty water machine ( J.W. Fishers) and a long handled scoop. Paul had a good idea where he was standing when he lost it but no idea where it landed. I started a grid search and found it in ten minutes on the first pass.

 

Totally Awesome ring Paul and it was so great to get it back to you.

July 20th 2013 Roy lost a ring in Elk Lake that was a very special ring because it was custom made from his late mothers jewelry.  When Roy was on an air mattress in July of 2013 he felt and watched his ring fall off and sink to the bottom. He jumped off and figured that it was about 10 feet deep.

Roy hired a diver the next day,  who spent 1 hour and 20 minutes searching, but no luck.

Fourteen months later I was diving with my Hookah and an under water detector looking for another lost ring, when under 6 inches of silt found this ring.

I knew this was a very special ring so I had to try to find the owner.

I searched the internet and found Roy’s ad and texted him, ” I think I have found your ring I said”.  A few minutes later my phone rang, the man at the other end gave me a description of the ring in my hand and we arranged to meet later that day.

Roy appeared to be in shock but very happy, fourteen months later his lost ring was recovered and returned to him.

I love my job.

August 8th 2014 I received a call from Lori asking do you still offer this service, Yes I do was my reply. She asked how does this work and I explained the reward system and she gave me details re the Gold and Diamond wedding/engagement rings she lost last week at the ball diamond.

I arranged to hunt right away because time is important when it comes to recovering lost rings.

After a couple of hours, I did not find it but promised to return after dinner.

Well expand the search and high tone, yes the ring. Wow what a beautiful ring.

Lori was so excited to have this awesome ring back where it belongs.

I love my Job. Making people Happy is so much fun!

Victoria, B.C. Wednesday July 30th 2014

Adele was visiting Victoria with her daughter (Errin) and grandchildren from Lethbridge Alberta.

July 27th the grandchildren and some neighbourhood children decided to play Princess, using Adele’s jewellery. Mom Erin discovered the kids were playing with her mothers jewellery in the back yard and several items became scattered all over the yard and in the flower gardens.

Everyone searched and most items were recovered, except one very important ring that Adele’s past husband gave her. As you can imagine this ring being the last ring that he gave her before passing was very special and important.

Errin searched the internet and found me on the www.theringfinders.com web site

After getting a message on my Cell Phone to called Adele re a lost ring I arranged a time to search.

About 20 minutes into the search I found this awesome 3 diamond ring.

I love my job, nothing better then a Happy Ending.

Art was playing ball on Willows Beach. He got home to discover his ring was gone.

He called me and asked have you found my ring? I said no but I will look for it. A hour search on a crowded beach and a recovery.

The first thing he said to me was this ring will be re-sized, I never want to loose it again.

May 14th I got a phone call from Julia and she asked for my help to recover her Russia Gold wedding band. I arranged to search the next day.

After meeting with Julia and understanding that this ring had travelled three continents to get to her and now it was lost after only three weeks, I had to put my best effort into recovering it for her.

Well I am glad to say after less then ten minutes Julia is wearing her ring once again.
