Diamond Anniversary Ring Found in South Johnson County

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)

Emily lost her 5 year wedding anniversary ring at a local winery on Friday night.  She looked over and over for it to no avail.  She sought assistance from the staff at the winery and even bought her own metal detector but none of her efforts produced the ring.  During a discussion of the events at work, one of her coworkers suggested The Ringfinders.

She contacted me and within a few hours we were at the location retracing her steps.  When that didn’t work, I began a grid search of the expansive gravel parking lot.  The painstaking attention to detail paid off as 45 minutes into to the grid, I heard the familiar staccato of a surface target.  Platinum with 5 diamonds, Emily’s precious family keepsake was right under my coil.

She was beside herself with joy when she got the news that her ring was safe.  Returning these irreplaceable treasures is an honor and deeply satisfying to be involved in.  Another happy (understatement) customer!

20 Year Class Ring Reunion in Overland Park

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)

My co-worker Chris relayed a story about losing his class ring in 2004.  We finally got a break with the weather and schedule to take a look for it.  Didn’t take long as it was within 5′ of where he described losing it 20 years ago.  How’s that for a class (ring) reunion!!

After a recent arctic blast, Ted cleaned the snow off a car in his driveway, then departed in his own car parked on the street.  Shortly after, he realized his wedding band was missing.  He contacted me and we braved the 15 degree temps looking for his ring.  No luck in the driveway but wouldn’t you know, right on the snow packed street, I swung over a strong signal.  He was fortunate the snowplow didn’t move it.  I am fortunate to have another happy (but cold) customer!

Lindsey lost her wedding ring set in her backyard.  After renting a detector to no avail, and searching at night with a flashlight with no luck, her neighbor contacted The Ringfinders.com and soon after I was at her home to meet her beautiful family.  We talked through the scenario and I showed her what the ring would sound like when I swung over it.  5 minutes later, another happy ending.  I love my job. 😊

Lost wedding ring found in Leawood

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)

Ed was raking leaves in his front yard when he realized his wedding ring was missing.  The harder he searched, the stronger that sinking feeling gripped the pit of his stomach.  He contacted me and the next morning I arrived at his home.  After our initial conversation, I gridded the front yard, but got no result. Next, we focused on the leaf bags.  Sure enough, the second bag came back with a signal.  Emptying the bag, small segments at a time, the target eventually found its way out of the bag and into that pile of leaves.  The pin-pointer did the rest and another discouraged customer was thrilled to have his ring back in hand. 

Paladium and White Gold Wedding Ring found in Olathe KS

  • from Kansas City (Missouri, United States)

Heather was on a family outing at the Olathe Lake Swim Beach and lost her wedding ring.  She was in about 5’ of water and as the ring slipped off, she saw it disappear into the murk.  This ring has a very deep sentimental value for Heather and Dave.  It also has considerable material value as it is a palladium band with 14K white gold bands on either side and a beautiful round diamond.

She and her husband made several unsuccessful attempts to find the ring.  They contacted me through Ring Finders and we met soon after at the beach in question.  We had a 2-hour time limit on our search as the facility wanted us to be finished by the time they opened.  We recovered several targets but did not locate the ring. 

We decided to regroup on a day that the beach was closed so we wouldn’t run into a tight time limit.  Also, I changed tack to hunt underwater with my hookah dive rig, detector, pin-pointer, mask and weight belt.  So, Dave and I returned to the lake and after a few more fishing lures, pull tabs and bottle caps the Legend rang up a solid, shallow, repeatable 29.  There is very little visibility at 5’ but I had the target in hand as I rose to the surface.  This stunner emerged and I knew a happy ending would culminate with this ring going back to its grateful owner!!

 Later that evening, when David returned the ring to his wife, Heather texted me and said she was “too emotional” to talk.  Tears of joy I suspect.
