I received a call on a sunny Friday afternoon from Rianna, who was in Beach Haven, Long Beach Island (LBI), NJ, with about 20 friends for a bachelorette beach weekend. Her friend Sarah had removed her engagement ring to apply sunblock and set it on her lap. A short time later, she stood up—and the ring vanished into the sand.
They immediately began searching and digging through the area but had no luck. That’s when Rianna searched online and found me, Edward Trapper – NJ Ring Finder. She called me in a panic, and I told her to stop digging and that I’d be there within 30 minutes. I assured her that if the ring was there, I’d find it.
I arrived in about 25 minutes, and Rianna met me at the dune walkover. We reviewed what happened, and I walked down to meet the group—who welcomed me with claps and cheers before I even began searching.
After scanning the area where they had all been sitting, I cleared a few faint signals. Then I got a very soft tone that I immediately knew was the ring. As I sifted through the sand and held it up in the air, the entire group erupted in cheers, tears, and hugs. A very emotional and unforgettable recovery!
I’m so glad I could help bring a happy ending to what could have been a very sad memory.
