Lost Barrel Ring10 kt Yellow Gold On The Side of The Road, St Albert, Alberta.
I recived a call from Sandra on December 27 requesting my service to locate her newly purchased wedding band which had been lost on the 23 of December while walking to a store. She took a short cut down a sharp enbankment, fell half way down the hill, and felt the ring slip off her finger and into the snow.
Sandra called her husband Kevin to come and help her find the ring. They both searched for a couple of hours and having no luck they went back the next day. Sandra than purchased a metal detector that just fustrated her even more because she did not understand how it worked. Sandra and Kevin went back a couple more times to search and again no luck.
Sandra called her daughter in Calgary and told her what happend. She suggested to call the Ringfinders as there was someone in Edmonton that could possible help. That is how Sandra got in touch with me.
After spending over three hours and not finding the ring I told Sandra she must have lost the ring somewhere else. Sandra felt that the ring had to be on the hill. As a precaution I suggested that she should make a police report in the chance that someone would pick it up and turn it in to the RCMP.
While driving back from Sherwood Park this morning I started to think of the last few searches I had done. I realized that prior to leaving my house this morning I had changed one of the coils on my detectors to search for a set of keys. I decided to return and search for the Barrel Ring on the hill. With in 2 minutes I found Sandra’s Ring only 18 inches from where she had slipped!
Right away I called Sandra and told her the good news. I had found her ring and I would immediately drop if off.
Thank you Sandra and Kevin for entrusting me to find your Ring.
