Thank you again for finding my wedding ring. I truly thought it was lost for good when it fell into Lake Michigan at 5ft in very rough conditions. The fact that you were able to travel to Ludington, from Traverse City, within 24 hours and find my ring was absolutely amazing. You knew the right questions to ask in order to locate the ring and were very professional. I never knew the network existed, but am now a believer in TheRingFinders!! Thank you so much!
