My Daughter Lost my Key Fob Somewhere on our Street!
We got a call about 5:30pm from a customer that we had help several months ago, her daughter had lost daddy’s very special knife in the high grass. We were able to find it and created a happy customer.
This same lady’s neighbor’s daughter grabbed her mom’s car keys and ran through the yards of about 5 homes chasing a dog and then ran back to her house. Now you need to understand these are hugh yards, 100-200 ft across per yard. All the neighbors and family had been looking for 1 key and key fob that had fallen off.
Our previous client came home and heard about the keys and immediately said « I know who to call, lets call « The Ring Finders », she gave us a call and explained what happened and we said let a us grab a quick dinner and we would head that way.
We arrived and chatted with the owner of the keys, the little girls dad, the little girl was in bed being punished for losing mom’s keys. He explained where she had run and told us we had permission to scan all 5 of his neighbors yards. Ellen & I got our Garrett ATPro’s and began to search, some areas were very thick grass. About 5 minutes after we started my son and his girlfriend arrived to assist. Sometimes just more eyes in a situation helps, it was starting to get dark.
We all spread out and it 5 minutes I hear my son say « Found It » we all ran to him, including the owner and all his neighbors, my son was not even using a detector, just walking and looking. As I told him, son we do not care how it gets found only that it gets found.
Everyone was happy the father said it would have cost him $300-$400 per replace the key fob for his wife’s car.
So from a referral comes another successful hunt for « The Dallas Ring Finders »

And there it was on the grass just by my loop… such a beautiful ring for such a lovely lady! And how appropriate that her husband would find it and put it back on her finger 15 years later. 
I always say every ring has a story and that story ends when the ring is lost…I was so happy that the ring found its way back to Jane and the store gets to continue. Over the years I have found hundreds of lost rings for people and today Stuart found his first ring and the most important one at that…This search turned out to be a team effort and 6 eyes are better then 2…Thank you very much for the kind reward and I will be donating 50% of the reward money to your cause Jane…Heart & Stroke Foundation.Thank you for reading my post! Lost a ring? Call ASAP!I love my job!Watch the video of the search below.https://youtu.be/dHYN0ZoZDCY
On 08/05/13, I received a phone call from a gentleman who said that his wife had lost her engagement ring on the beach in Dewey Beach, Del. The gentleman requested my assistance in finding the ring so I responded to the area of the lost ring and contacted the young lady who had lost the ring. The young lady stated that she had placed her rings in the side pocket of a cart that they had taken with them on the beach. What she did not know was that the pocket on the cart had a hole in it and when she went to get her rings, she only was able to find the wedding band. We walked down to the are on the beach where the cart had been sitting. The beach was still crowded so I only had a small area to search and this area was where the cart had been sitting and was marked by a beach chair. I began my search and I new failure was not an option as all eyes on the beach were upon me. I made my first pass, there was nothing and then on my second pass there it was just waiting to be found. The young lady sat patiently in the beach chair watching as I searched. I scooped up the ring, grabbed it with my fingers and revealed it to the young lady and I asked « Is this it? » Tears welled up in her eyes as I handed her the ring, she was very grateful for the return of her ring. The beach crowd around the search site, cheered and clapped. What a rush! The husband of the young lady arrived before I departed, he thanked me and said « I really had no desire to learn how to use a metal detector tonight! »
