Bill contacted me about doing a search at his property where his home had succumbed to the fire in January. He was most interested in finding his wife’s wedding and engagement rings. We arranged a day and time to meet, and I was able to go.

When I got there Bill was already at the property. I introduced myself, and began asking questions, wanting to know where the rings had been, and where he thought I should look. His wife was on the way, but we got started right away. Bill showed me the area where he remembered last seeing the jewelry box, and we ran an estimated area of the search. I donned my safety gear, and began moving the big stuff out of the way in order to get to finer debris. When Bill’s wife Lourdes arrived, she came over to say that I was looking in the wrong area, and that I should be looking on the other side of the room. She showed me where she believed the rings should be. and that’s where I began. It wasn’t that Bill was wrong because there was a jewelry box where he remembered, but what he didn’t know was that his wife put her rings elsewhere. Knowing where to look is very important in these searches. I began working through the debris shovelful by shovelful, and noticed that Bill and Lourdes had left. Not long after, I found the wedding ring and placed in a container. When they returned Lourdes came up and asked how things were going, and I showed her the ring I found. She got very excited and hopeful that the other ring would be found. About 15 minutes later I was able to find the engagement ring, which pretty much made their day. They had lost everything, but I was able to help them find a precious memory, and bring a little joy back in their lives.

DIAMOND NECKLACE AND CLASS RING LOST IN THE PALISADES FIRE FOUND AND RETURNED

  • from Santa Monica (California, United States)

 

Wendy called me to help her find some jewelry that was lost when her house was destroyed in the palisades fire .  I met her three days later and followed her to the property. She said that she grabbed her jewelry box when she was on the way out the door when she was evacuated. before the fire. She told me there was still a few pieces of jewelry that she left behind that were important to her. I started digging for a while with no luck. I removed a safe from the rubble but was told that there probably  wasn’t anything valuable left in it. I had a strange feeling in my gut that there was so I told her that I would try and open it. That turned out to be harder than I thought. It was a fireproof safe and very heavy. It took over an hour using a crowbar a sledge hammer and a lot of hitting prying and bending. finally I got to the point were I could squeeze the cutting blade of an electric grinder in and cut out the two remaining bolts that were holding the door on. At last it was open.  I scooped the contents of the safe onto a sifting screen and to her surprise there was most of her valuable jewelry. This included her diamond necklace . her husbands gold class ring . Several gold and silver bracelets and chains. a watch, a couple of other gold rings and two very sentimental silver stars of David that she bought many years ago on a trip to Israel with her husband before they got married. I’m glad that I trusted my gut and put the extra effort into opening the safe and Wendy was very happy that I did.
