Barbara contacted me during a time of great distress because she could not find her beloved yellow gold, 1.4 carat pear shaped diamond with accent round diamonds engagement ring. She searched all over her house for many days but all of her efforts led to no avail. She remembered that she did a particular errand but then returned to the home and she was worried that maybe her ring fell off in a public environment. After nearly a week of searching, Barbara found THE RING FINDERS’ website online and learned about my ring finding service. We immediately set up a time for me to come to her Alexandria, Virginia home to do a full investigation to see if I could recover her irreplaceable keepsake.

I visited Barbara’s house twice: once on a Friday and the other day was two days later on Sunday. When I first arrived, my client gave me a very long tour of all the places where she worked and relaxed around the house. She showed me the two cars that she drove, the location where she walked across the lawn and also where all of the garbage was thrown out. There was a lot of territory to cover.

On Day 1, I was focused on metal detecting the lawn, searching some places in the living room (which included probing the couch), and lastly, searching all of the bags of trash outside. It was dark outside by the time I completed the final bag of garbage and at that point there was no recovery made. I left the house after searching for about 3.5 hours.

On Day 2, I set my aim on probing both vehicles and searching more rooms in the house. Once I concluded that the sentimental « symbol of love » that Barbara so very much cherished for many decades was not lost in either car, I made my way into the house. My client suggested that I move next into the laundry room since there was plenty of clothing to be scanned and multiple hiding places that the ring could have made its way into. However, I continued my walk straight past the laundry room and went directly into the kitchen.

I had remembered that I had asked Barbara the other day if she had been in her kitchen sometime during the day of the disappearance of her ring. She couldn’t remember specifically what she did in that space in the house, but I was still curious to check one specific area before moving on to the next room.

I asked Mrs. Katz, « Do you have a cabinet or drawer where you stuff your reusable plastic grocery bags? » She immediately responded by pointing to a narrow cabinet near the refrigerator and said, « Yes, absolutely. I throw them all in here. Why do you ask? » I went on to share with my client that I recently successfully found a men’s wedding band in a large bag hanging from the pantry door handle where the gentleman had stuffed all of his reusable grocery bags into it. The ring had slipped off of his finger and landed in the pile of plastic! I wanted to check to see if Barbara’s ring might have ended up in a similar environment.

Handful by handful, my client gave me a fistful of grocery bags to metal detect with my pinpointer. After clearing one clump of plastic, I would repeat the procedure with a fresh group of bags. After detecting forty out of the hundred items stuffed in the narrow vertical cabinet, suddenly, my client let out a shriek of excitement and exclaimed, « Brian, we found it! The ring! It just fell to the bottom of the cabinet from within the middle of the pile! You did it! Your hunch was right! My ring was in here all along! I can’t believe it! »

Barbara and I rejoiced together and the two of us were completely in disbelief! Even though I find these consistencies in similar environments while trying to solve such head scratching mysteries, it never gets old and its always beyond amazing to be a part of these kind of recoveries!

My client’s spouse came out of the bedroom and he was completely blown away by my successful endeavors. He admitted to me just like many other unbelievers have in the past, « When I was told what you do to help people find their lost rings, I didn’t think for a minute that you would solve this one! Well Brian…you proved me wrong! »
