This morning, Apr 20th, I woke up to a text from Scott saying, “Good morning, sir, my name is Scott. I live in Conway. Yesterday I lost my wedding ring I think in my lawn. My issue is we’re leaving to Connecticut for a week on Monday. Are u able to come today or tomorrow to look for it? Thank you.” I called him and got some additional details and told him I’d be there around noon.
I arrived shortly before noon and found Scott and his wife, Kim sitting outside watching over some of their garage sale items for the neighborhood garage sale. We introduced ourselves and I ask Scott to tell and show me what had happened. He said that he had gotten the car washed and was in the process of drying the car down with a towel. There were a few times that he was shaking out the towel in the yard. It wasn’t until he finished that he noticed his ring was gone. He and Kim had looked through the grass the night before with no luck. I turned on my Equinox 800 and started detecting alongside his driveway and out into the grass. After my first grid line, I moved out to the grass area running between the sidewalk and the street. About 3 swings and I got a solid 16 on the VDI. After moving some grass around, I saw Scott’s wedding band laying snugly in its hiding place. I grabbed it and held it up saying “Got it!” Both Scott and Kim were smiling from ear to ear. I asked Kim how they found me, and she said she had posted that Scott had lost his ring on Face Book. She also said that a friend had seen her post and steered her towards The Ring Finders.
Scott and Kim – Thank you for trusting me to help find your lost treasure.
Jim
Jim, there are no words to describe any better then Kim did OUR Appreciation for the ring find. I was devastated ! Although I saw you concentrating on the small grass area between the road and the sidewalk I have to admit I was a bit doubtful. However, when we first met you said “LETS FIND IT” and I really had a glimmer of hope. You made my heart skip and I (we) thank you so much.
Prayers for you, and St Jude with our donation.
Jim, words can’t express any better than Kim did on your thoughtfulness to find my Wedding band. I have to admit I had my doubts HOWEVER, I felt a glimmer of hope after we met and you said to me… ” LETS GO FIND IT”. Never a doubt in your mind and a smile. 10 minutes felt like 10 hours. You did your work with concern, care, and as a dedicated professional who just wants to help people. God Bless you and St Jude’s hospital. I’m so touched we were able to donate to them thru you. Again, thank you
Scott Friend 🎺😊
YAY! How wonderful that such a company is available to find precious “lost” (until YOU get there) items. So happy that Scott & Kim have Scott’s wedding band back where it belongs.
