Lost earring found in Chicago Il garden

  • from Chicago (Illinois, United States)

Just didn’t ask enough questions.
Received a call for a woman that said she lost an earring in her garden.
Normally a garden search is pretty quick and easy, what I failed to realize is she is a horticulturist that maintains a garden for a housing complex that is about a half a block long.
I like a challenge and that sure presented one, there was a lot of “don’t step there, and don’t step there.
Thankfully I am used to hearing that when walking around my wife’s garden.
After about an hour of tiptoeing I got lucky and hit it.
Happy ending.

Lost wedding ring found in Darien, Il
Husband lost his wedding ring when throwing ball for dogs, who kept me company during the search.
This is another case of, “they are rarely found where you think they will be”
Told me he actually saw the ring come off and go up in the air, searched the area where he said it should have come down for about an hour with no success.
I actually found it after about 3 hours about 30ft to left of where he threw the ball, if not found where you think it should be, need to think out of the box and hunt everywhere. Hard to figure how it got there but happy ending.

Lost Gold Diamond ring found in Downers Grove Il

  • from Chicago (Illinois, United States)
Contact:

Received a call for a woman in Downers Grove.

Lost her Gold Diamond ring but was not sure where she lost it.

She went shopping and check ed with 3 stores she shopped in to see if ti was turned in which it was not.

Normally these do not end well because you have no ideas where to look and Husband thought it was gone forever.

After a series of questions I found out she was doing some yard work earlier and took off her tight fitting glove a few times. What I first thought was going to be a lost cause turned out to be a 15 minute search, her smile says it all!

Lost 18k wedding ring found in Mount Prospect Il

  • from Chicago (Illinois, United States)
Contact:
Received a call from a woman in Mount Prospect .
Lost her 18k wedding ring while playing with her kids in the yard.
I love yard searches because I probably have over a 95% success rate, if it’s lost in the yard it has to be there.
Once I arrived and asked more questions to get as much detail as I could one little thing was left out in our first conversation, they were playing on a Trampoline (yikes, what possibly could go wrong?)
She told me she saw it come off and was directed in the general direction she thought it went.
I carefully staked out the area After over 2 hours of searching and trying to navigate between a tremendous amount of trash in the ground (not visible) with no success I was getting ready to call it, but going back to my own rule of things are rarely found where you think they will be, based on that I decided to move the Trampoline, a few minutes later bingo, found it about in the center under the Trampoline. How it got there is anyone’s guess, I really could not figure that one out but the main thing is there was a happy ending,
Love this job!!!

lost wedding band found in Mount Prospect Il

  • from Chicago (Illinois, United States)
Contact:

Received a call for lost wedding band while playing with his dog in Mount Prospect.

He search went well and found the ring in about 15 minutes however I then discovered I lost one of my hearing aids while adjusting my headphones so the next half hour was looking for the aid, fortunately I did find it and was able to put into practice something I always say to customers, I rarely find things where you think you lost them and that sure was the case I found the aid not even close to where I thought I would have lost it but happy ending all around.

Platinum Diamond Engagement ring found in Broadview Il

  • from Chicago (Illinois, United States)
Contact:

Received a call from a woman that told me while having a dispute she tossed her Platinum wedding ring out the window of the car.

Based on what she told me I thought this would be an easy search because it was such a small area.

Unfortunately it was the trashiest corner in the city, getting at least 54 to 6 hits with every swing of the coil.

After about 2 hours of searching I finally hit it. She was happy beyond words.
