LOST WEDDING RING IN WAIKIKI FOUND

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find started in the late evening around 9:00pm on June 16th. I noticed on craigslist an ad that said they lost their wedding ring in Waikiki. I respond to the ad and got a call back from Jay. Asked him a bunch of questions and Apparently there were 3 other detectors who tried looking for it and didn’t find it. I was a bit hesitant to go out and look knowingly that there were 3 others who looked and supposedly didn’t find it. I was hoping that someone didn’t find it or worse they may have found it but wasn’t truthful. My gut was telling me to go out there and help them so, I did. I let Jay know that I’m on my way and to make sure NO MORE METAL DETECTORS go through the area. I get to the beach and meet up with Jay and started to look… there in the search site was almost 60 drunk people partying on the beach, beer cans, rubbish, rough waves and a lot of coins. About 4 hours later I get a nice tone while I’m in chest deep water… there in my scoop is a beautiful 3.8 karat wedding ring. I look towards shore and turn on my headlamp so Jay can see me and start nodding my head so he knows the ring is found. I give a loud shout of praise and I hear the people on the beach yelling  » YOU FOUND IT? » as I reply « YES ». The people on the beach gathered around as I presented Jay His wife ring back. All i could hear were people yelling and excited that the ring was found. Jay and I both agreed to let his wife know so she could enjoy the return of here precious ring. Another successful recovery and another honeymoon saved. WHAT A GREAT FATHERS DAY GIFT!!!

Mahalo and LIVE ALOHA

    Saturday started off busy! Our family is in the middle of a move & after checking into our hotel, we decided to head down to Waikiki beach to have some fun and enjoy the sun.

    After about an hour of swimming and throwing around a football my husband and I realized my ring was gone! We were both devastated and what made it worse was my husband didn’t speak much – that’s when you know he’s real upset! My husband searched the water with his snorkel for about 2 hours when he remembered he met a man who owns a metal detector. Joe stopped what he was doing to help us but the tide was high, Beach was crowded and the water was rough so no matter how hard he tried, it was harder than finding a needle in a haystack!
    I took our son back to our hotel so he could get some rest and my husband and I agreed we’d meet back with Joe again once the tide went down.

    My husband stayed out into the night and at around 9pm he called me to tell me a gentleman had heard about our situation and was willing to help us find my ring.

    Kai gave us back the hope that we were losing. He wasn’t going to leave until he could reunite us with the diamond that means so much to us. It was pitch black outside but he worked his tail off and didn’t give up when most people would have!

    The search attracted some attention from beach goers who Kai talked to and asked them to come in agreement as he prayed with them and once they knew what we were so desperately looking for and at 1:30 in the early morning a miracle happened. Kai signaled a nod with his headlamp and my husband couldn’t believe it! After a very emotional day, we all couldn’t help but shed a few tears.

    Kai, you have no idea how lucky we feel to have met you! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
    If items are lost Kai will give his very best! What’s even more amazing is that he will do it for a complete stranger!
