On a Saturday afternoon a text message drew my attention: “Hi… I saw your name on the ring finders and I was curious if you are willing to travel to North Augusta, SC? I lost my wedding ring in my yard/flower bed this past weekend and have been unable to find it. If you are not able to travel this far, would you be able to recommend anyone around this area? Thank you for your time.
As it turned out, at 1 hour and 40 minutes of drive time, I was the closest ring-finder by about 15 minutes and so began another ring hunt/recovery. I am very fortunate to have Ellie, my wife accompany me on trips like this one as we both enjoy helping people find their lost treasure. When we arrived, the customer helpfully provided an aerial view of the locations he gardened /worked over the weekend. After searching all the likely locations, I prayerfully expanded the search to some unmarked mulch beds. Almost immediately the lost treasure was detected hiding in plain sight. Next comes my favorite part: I sent a picture of the ring to the husband who was at work and returned the ring to his wife. Reuniting customers (and oftentimes marriages) with their lost treasure is a source of great joy for me. Many thanks to all my customers and the ring finders! (https://theringfinders.com/)
