Wedding Ring Lost at a Pacifica, Ca Beach…FOUND!!!
We made the recovery!!! Just after 2:30pm on June 21st good friend and fellow metal detectorist Jes Muse contacted me. She was feeling under the weather but had received a call in Pacifica, Ca. She asked if I’d be willing to take it.
With local weather being over 100 degrees, I couldn’t think of a better opportunity to beat the heat and lend a helping hand.
I contacted a Mrs. Laurie LeRowe for additional information and to confirm my appointment, and 1 hour later we were introduced beach side. Mrs. LeRowe provided some background information as well as some landmarks defining our search area and our search began.
Approximately 20 minutes into the search and only my second good target, we made the recovery!!!
There were many reasons leading to the success of this story and there is some credit due…Thank you to Marshal Smith of Portland, OR who put the family in contact with Jes Muse (Pacifica, CA). Thank you to Jes Muse who always puts her best foot forward seeing to the needs of those who contact her. This was not the first time she’s entrusted me with a search and recovery and I hope not the last. Also to the American Mining Supply for the new machine I used for this recovery, thank you! Last, but most important, Mrs. Laurie LeRowe who tirelessly sought out information and services and who coordinated with most of the folks mentioned above to make this search happen and successful…Great Job!
To Fernandes and Hilary, I am grateful to get the opportunity to be woven into your love story and wish you both endless happiness in the future.
We Made The Recovery!!!

Testimonial for Brendon Chapman:
Brendan’s willingness and promptness to drive more than an hour to the site, through traffic (valley folks heading to the beach for cooler temps in addition to afternoon traffic) his detective skills and tools, and most importantly his kindness and generosity of time and effort with no guarantees of success. The ring was lost the afternoon before. Thankfully we were able to bless him for his efforts, skills, time and gas. I enjoyed our visit as we waited for Hilary and Fernandes to arrive after their works, to thank him in person . I highly recommend Brendon, and the others who helped me find him…Ringfinders site, Marshall, And Jes.











This young man recently acquired his high school graduation ring that he was proud to wear. Unfortunately at a gathering of his buddies graduation night he high fived a friend with a bit to much enthusiasm that resulted in the ring flying off his finger, bounced across a wooden deck, onto a wooden dock, and disappeared into about 5 foot of water. Because it was dark the exact path and ultimate location could only be determined by sound. The boys rummaged around on the sandy bottom feeling with their feet with no success. They called me the next day and I started a search early that afternoon. The bottom had quite a bit of trash metal mixed with the sand as you would expect near a boat dock. I’ve a very good totality waterproof detector and carefully, slowly searched the area in a grid pattern, after about an hour searching I located his ring on the edge of a neighbors dock slip. He and a his friend were very excited to get the ring and we exchanged high fives all around… but with a little less enthusiastic force. 😎
