The class ring that I found the other day which I thought might be hard to locate the owner of turned out to be a super easy return. The girls name was Adriana Jones and the school was Hamilton, the year 2015. I did a search on Facebook for "Adriana Jones + Hamilton" and saw a match. I sent her a message asking if she lost her ring in Florida and she replied "Yes Ma'am"
I asked her to describe it and the details matched. It turns out Adriana lost the ring in 2014 while vacationing here from Mississippi. Her two year old nephew ran out into the water and she chased after him and lost the ring while grabbing him in the water. I found it about 100-200 feet away from where she lost it, in the water, two years later using my metal detector. This goes to show that some rings really do not move very far from where they are lost despite the rough and changing conditions of our ocean (In many cases). She actually lost two rings that day at the same time and I've got messages out to my friends that metal detect to see if any of them have found the other one and I'll be checking the beach again after church tomorrow or Monday to see if perhaps the other one is still there.
Her Aunt lives near me and we are making arrangements for her to come pick up the ring. Another happy return!
