Kelowna. Horse arena rings found for a second time

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

Last December I assisted Natalie to find her wedding ring in a horse arena, she took the rings off, and put them in her pocket so as not to lose them during her event. Today her husband called me on The Ringfinders to say that she was embarrassed because she had done it again, only this time losing both 14k White Gold and Diamond, Wedding ring and Engagement ring. After an hour and a half of gridding the outdoor arena she had both rings back on her finger. A bonus was that I also found a young girls gold ring that she lost yesterday.

Ring lost in the Kelowna snow, found & returned weeks later

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)
Contact:

An ex Westjet flight attendant friend of mine, who knew I was a member of The Ringfinders, called me to ask if I could help her friend Pam locate her lost ring. Pam loaned her mothers ring to her daughter to wear. Playing in the snow throwing snowballs, the daughter lost the ring on a boulevard. I met Pam by the school and she showed me where her daughter thought that she lost the ring in the snow. Pam and both her kids had searched the area a few times with no luck, they had given up, but my friend said not to give up. By now the snow was gone and the boulevard was grass. I started my search and Pam wandered the other way, fortunately the sun luckily glinted off the gold and Pam had the ring in minutes.

Her husband found The Ringfinders site and sent me an email, I responded the next day and met Natalie at 4pm when the classes for the day were finished.

I started gridding the arena, fortunately there was very little metal junk in the arena and with 30 minutes we had the ring back on her finger.

Chad was in Skaha Lake behind his family home teaching his daughter how to swim when he realized his !8k White Gold wedding ring was missing,  he searched the water to no avail. 3 weeks later he found me on The Ringfinders website. The day I got the call I was searching Okanagan Lake for an engagement ring successfully, so I responded the next morning. After almost 2 hours of searching in the mucky silt I was feeling discouraged knowing that the ring is there somewhere, I took 3 steps from the boat dock and success there was the ring.

Kelowna Lake, Ring lost & Found & Returned

Shantel called me early morning that her brother in law had lost his 14k wedding ring in the Lake at Gyro Beach. They spent two hours the evening before searching for it, to no avail. I responded to her call right away, and started my search pattern, fortunately they knew the approximate location. My only concern was that there was another metal detector working the area, however within forty minutes I had the ring in my scoop. The owner Javid had not yet told his wife that he had lost it, so he was delighted to have it back on his finger.

John`s daughter had the ring custom made for his birthday out of 18k white gold and 7 diamonds. John was planting potatoes behind his orchard when after spreading the straw around them he noticed his ring was missing.  After calling me I arrived the next morning, surveyed the potato plot and decided that I could cover the whole plot. Luckily the corner that I started at was where it was lost, and it was found within six footsteps.  Another happy customer.

FIRST FIND OF THE YEAR RETURNED

  • from Kelowna (British Columbia, Canada)

It was an unusual Winter day in Lake Country BC, when Naomi was out in the  backyard with her dog. On returning indoors she noticed her 14k White Gold Diamond Wedding ring was missing. She looked me up on The Ringfinders website and asked if I could help her. The day she called at 6:45 am, it was -10 degrees Celsius and she had over 2 feet of snow in her yard, I responded by noon the same day, it was still snowing heavily. She was not sure of the location in the yard, but had an idea, her husband Jason was out with a flashlight hoping to locate it, without any luck. After the hour drive to their home they showed me their yard, I was surprised at the depth of the snow but suspected that the ring would not have fallen all the way through the snow. I spent an hour gridding the yard which was difficult going, I told them that if I did not locate it I would return the next week when the snow would have melted to a lesser depth, in the worst case I would return when the snow was gone and not to worry, it would be found. After recovering my breath and warming my hands I gave the worn down pathway one last sweep when I got a good signal, success the ring was found.

Okanagan Lake lost ring found and returned.

I just got home from 3 hours of swinging my detector in Okanagan lake when there was a phone call and an email from Jaime that she had lost her ring in the Lake. She was at the Doggie Park throwing sticks for her 2 dogs Tosh and Reo  when her ring caught on the stick and went into the water. I met her at the park within 30 minutes and she showed me the location of the throw, I knew from experience that this part of the lake is littered with metal junk but figured a gold ring should be an easy find. On my first sweep one way with no obvious good target, I did a sweep the other way and dug every signal. After 90 minutes and a bag full of junk I was starting to get discouraged, but I knew the ring had to be there, so after searching the beach I widened my search in the water away from the target area and within 10 more minutes we had the ring, persistence pays. Jamie had sentimental feelings for the ring as it was handed down to her from her Auntie, she learned that when throwing sticks into the water do not wear your rings.

Chris was out back of his condo walking his Australian Terrier in the snow, going back inside he realized he had lost his wedding ring. He found me on The Ringfinders website and gave me a call. I responded at 8am the next morning, Chris suspected that it came off while he was shaking the snow off a tree, we went back and searched under the tree, then started a circle around the tree. Within 10 minutes we had the ring and Chris was happy. A quick response and a good suspect location paid off.
