LOST ENGAGEMENT RING IN KELOWNA FOUND & RETURNED.

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Faith was by the Shopping Centre, and was wandering around her car on the boulevard when she noticed her Engagement Ring was missing.  Devastated and not wanting to tell her fiancé, she purchased a Metal Detector to try to locate it, after 2 hours she gave up. The Detector Salesman told her if you don’t find it, call this professional on The Ringfinders. That evening her fiancé knew something was wrong, and he got the information out of her. The next day she called me, and I responded right away to her location, after her story, I checked the area she suspected with no luck. The lost item often is not in the specific location they mark, so I gridded further out on the boulevard and found the Ring, restoring happiness to the engaged couple.

Lost wedding Ring in Lake, Returned in Kelowna

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Nick had been married for 2 days and was honeymooning in Kelowna BC. On the busy Beach at City Park, with the temperature over 30, he decided to go for a swim. His wife said maybe you should take your ring off, he didnt and he lost it in the Lake. He called me for assistance, and I responded within 30 minutes. He walked me out to the location, and said right here. I got a signal and in my first scoop was his ring, two feet further out was the deep dropoff, and it would have been too deep. An early response and a good location marked was the key to success.

Survey Pins found in Kelowna

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

My usual requests are for assistance with lost jewellery items, yesterday was to locate a property survey pin. After viewing the area, I identified 3 problems, the neighbours metal fence, a large tree with roots in the area, and a large Sanitary manhole cover close by. There were many signals in the location, many being large signals, one was either a pipe or a cable, but my smaller coil searched between them and gave me the signal I was looking for, a short consistent blip. we dug finding rocks with my probe. My pinpointer showed that after every rock, we were getting closer. At 14 inches depth I felt a square item that proved to be the pin. I was impressed that we found the pin in such a target rich environment, we measured from the found pin amd located the other back yard pin. The homeowner was excited and thankful, his estimate from a survey company was between $1,000 and $2000.

Contact:

Mission Hill Winery in West Kelowna BC, contacted me, they needed to locate a water shut off valve. They showed me the location on the hillside where they thought it was, after 45 minutes on the hillside covered with periwinkle finding junk metal and lighting, I was getting tired. As I got to the top of the hill by the building, I visually saw a capped plastic white pipe sticking out of the ground. I told them that is what they cover the shut off valves with, they said we have to reward you, that`s the 2 bottles of wine by the cover in the picture.

Phone tag to find the Key Fob owner in Kelowna.

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Friday night I received a phone call from a fellow detectorist, who asked if I could assist a lady with a lost key Fob. He gave me the ladies number, but the  group of ladies stranded could not identify the park where they where at, they forwarded me on to their Aunt from Edmonton. By the time we figured it out it is was dark, I told them I would be there the next morning.  Saturday morning I got there at 7am, without any specific location, just by the parked red Mazda, sand or maybe the grass? I started gridding the sand, and after 30 minutes I had the Car Fob. I phoned the Aunts number, phone not in use, so I called the initial detectors request, and he did not know, but his brother did, I called his brother who contacted the lady and said she would call me back. Her friends turned up and sure enough it was their Key Fob. They started the car and drove it to the owner. Key fobs are expensive to replace, especially with the car stranded.

Experience Counts

I got a call from Lake Country BC, a one hour drive away, the gentleman told me he had lost his 18k yellow gold and ruby ring that his wife presented to him years ago. He hosted his sons wedding in his back yard around the pool, and lower patio area last Fall, he lost the ring removing lighting from around the pool. He had photographs from the patio showing that he had the ring before the lights removal, he suspected it was in the Basalt rocks around the patio, below where the lighting was, he thought it probably came off during the removal. His search had no results, I told him would respond the first good weather day. Yesterday was that day, I spent almost 2 hours gridding the area, and advised him the I was convinced that it was not there,  he responded that I was probably his last resort. I told him stories of past recoveries where the lost item often turned up the trash bags where leaves etc had been placed, and suggested he take down his packing boxes where he stored the lights and search them, he agreed and said that was also his plan. That evening he called to say he had found the ring, and thanked me for my time and travel, and that I was his inspiration to take down the boxes and search them,  his last hope was the boxes.

Heico and his wife were enjoying a day at the beach, when Heico took off his wedding ring, and placed it on the towel, to apply sun screen. Like all men our brain will only focus on one item at a time and the ring was forgotten. When leaving the beach Heico picked up the towel and realized he had no ring, they searched the location with no success. I responded early morning, and once he showed me the location, the ring was located quickly. Heico was amazed that it was exactly where they had searched, Heico was happy to have his wedding ring of 24 years returned.

Kelowna Lost Wedding Ring Found and Returned

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Aliya called me that her husband Nathaniel had lost a Wedding Ring the previous evening, I responded right away. The Family had been having a photo shoot on Dilworth Mountain. During the photo shoot Nathaniel did not wear his wedding ring because it did not fit properly, so he borrowed his fathers ring ( who was not with them) for the shoot, unfortunately his fathers ring was also too loose, and wouldn’t you know it, he lost it. The family all searched the suspected loss location with no success, as luck would have it during their search, someone stepped on the ring and pushed it into the ground. The first sweep of my detector gave a signal, and after scraping the dirt we had fathers ring recovered. Everyone one was happy, and it saved an embarrassing conversation with father.
