In the evening of Saturday August 30th I received a text from a kind woman who had found me through the ringfinders.com.  She (Patti)  was contacting me on the behalf of a young woman (Keyanna) who had lost the ring in a small park near Patti’s property.  Keyanna’s custom made ring flew off while playing volleyball in a small park close to Patti’s property.  Pattie and several kind neighbors helped Keyanna hunt for the ring that evening.

On the next morning I received another text from Patti requesting that I come see if I could reunite Keyanna with her lost ring.   In a little less than 30 minutes I was fortunate enough to find Keyanna’s ring.  I hear this ring has some significant history for Keyanna, it was custom made in Egypt, a pair of engagement rings for her and her fiancee with their initials engraved on them.  Needless to say everyone involved was very happy to see that ring again.

A special shout out to Patti for finding the ringfinders.com online and reaching out to me, without her this recovery may have had a different outcome.  God Bless to everyone who was involved in this success story. Happy times and Happy Labor Day Weekend 2025 !!!

On Christmas day at around 5pm I received a call from gentleman named Andrew who informed me about his wife losing both her wedding band and engagement ring.  She went to feed their livestock some hay and her rings came off as she was shaking the hay around the stall.  That’s where I come in…We met up the following day and got to work on finding those lost rings.  The first ring to surface from the hay was the wedding band I believe and then after some time the engagement ring was found.  I’m always happy to see the smiles on  the faces when they see that ring again.  I’m sure this Christmas will be remembered for a long time to come.

Thank you Andrew and Brook….and I can’t forget Josh, Andrew’s friend who helped us out during the search.

I received a call from a gentleman who had lost his wedding ring while driving a combine out in a corn field.  He had stopped to stretch his legs and dust himself off and that’s when he felt his ring fly off into the cornfield. I happened to be out of town at the time he called but went out to the location shortly after returning from visiting family.

It took me two trips due to the weather but I was able to find and return the newly weds wedding band.  He’d only been married a few weeks before the ring was lost.  Another happy camper thanks to the RingFinders.

I recently starting working for a woman who has a fairly good size piece of property.  I asked for her permission to metal detect around her property and she said I could but if I found her husbands lost wedding band she would like to have it back.  He unfortunately has passed a few years ago and I’m sure it would mean a lot to her to have it.

Today after my chores were finished I told her I was going to try and find the ring for her.  It was just one of those times when a higher authority seems to be in control, I started out towards the area where she believed it might be and and on my first mid-tone signal I found the ring about 5 inches down.  Needless to say it was a great day for the both of us.  I believe I had help on this one…

I was contacted through the ring finders web site by a lady named Cindy who had lost her deceased mothers wedding band.  Cindy was wearing her mom’s wedding band when she was startled while working out back on her property.

Cindy gave me a report on where she believed the ring could be found and although it wasn’t looking good in the beginning, I eventually was able to find her ring not too far from where she believed it would be.  I’m very grateful to Cindy and Chris Turner at the Ring Finders to allow me to assist Cindy in recovering a very personal lost treasure.

 

I received a call this morning from a woman named Sonia who needed help finding her wedding ring.  The phone number was from out of town and I almost did not take the call.  After a short story about who, what, where and when I was on the road a few minutes later.

After arriving at the location where the ring was believed to have been lost I contacted the school administrators office to inform them of my presence.  One of the ladies from the admin office escorted me to the area and told me I was welcomed to start looking as we waited for Sonia (the ring owner) to arrive.  I found a few coke can pull tabs and a half dozen coins but no wedding band.

After Sonia arrived and told me where she believed I might find the ring, it was only minutes later when I got a good solid tone on my Silver Sabre and uncovered her beautiful ring.  What a beautiful ring it was too.  I forgot to take some pictures of the recovery but Sonia shared one with me later.

What a happy day it was for everyone involved.  Thank you Sonia for calling me and giving me the pleasure of helping you find your ring.  I am so glad I was able to find it for you.

Best Wishes in the future and God Bless

I’m happy to report another keepsake recovery here in Indiana today.  Yesterday I received a text from a guy who was pretty upset after losing his wedding band during a pool party.  I was hesitant to comply with his request to help due to the distance involved between us.  He informed me that he had sought the assistance of the local Ring Finders but was unable to reach them due to vacation time and other commitments.  I could tell he was very anxious about the loss and he really wanted help so I agreed to meet with him and find his ring.

After about 50 minutes of searching the area, the wedding band was recovered and Scott Caulfield of Westfield Indiana was one Extremely happy camper.

I’m so happy to be a part of the Ring Finders and to be able to share these special moments of extreme joy with those who are rewarded with a recovery.  Kudos to Chris Turner for bringing this venue to the benefit of literally thousands of happy people around the world.

OH….and by the way….Scott’s wedding band has a inscription on it…..it says….”What a Wonder World”

God Bless
