I received a call from Kyla today asking if I could help her find a wedding ring. I told her that I would be glad to help her. I asked where she was, and she told me Venice Beach. I was out metal detecting close by, and told her I could be there in just minutes.
I met Kyla and her husband Andrew when I got there a very short time after the call, they showed me where the ring had been lost. It was her husbands ring that had been lost in the sand, I looked in the area, and there was a lady with a toy metal detector searching the sand trying to help them, and I could see that she had looked in the area of the loss because the sand was completely smoothed out. It took all but about 3 minutes to find what I could tell had been searched for, for quite a while from the amount of smoothed out sand. I use the best equipment available to help the people I search for, and it does make a difference.
After handing Andrew his ring, and experiencing their joy, I asked them how long they had been married, and they told me 2 weeks. They were on their honeymoon from New Zealand, and they were due at the airport in 1 1/2 hours. I got to thinking, I was right where they needed me to be so they did not have to leave their token of love behind to go home, providence, maybe? I just so enjoy this service!
Andrew explains what the loss and recovery meant to him:
Thanks for your help at Venice re the lost wedding ring in the sand at the outdoor Gym.
» While on my Honeymoon in Santa Monica I lost my wedding ring at Venice Beach. A young lady saw me and my wife Kyla searching in the sand and advised there are « guys with metal detectors » walking the beach who could find it?
Immediately we jumped on google and did a search. We called Steve and explained the situation. He was with us in about 10 mins and ready to get his hunt on!
It took him about 2-5 mins and he found the ring! Without Steve we would have gone back to New Zealand with no ring and my wife and I would have been devastated. I cant thank him enough!
Having the ring found was umm lost for words » a miracle!! » I don’t know what I would have done if Steve never crossed our path.
Thanks so much! »
Regards, Andrew
