Man Loses Wedding Band After Canoe Capsized in Lake Nipissing, North Bay, Ontario
Eric headed north from Hamilton to see his Family in North Bay, Ontario.
He decided to go for a canoe paddle but unfortunately the canoe capsized and Eric’s ring slipped off his finger into 5′ of water near the Sunset Beach boat launch.
Eric contacted me and I went up on a beautiful sunny day as I was off on holidays. I managed to ask two complete strangers Don & Barb local North Bay residents to be my safety spotters while I search for the lost ring.
A few items were found such as a fishing lure, a Medic Alert bracelet (which I tried to return) a number of trash items and after an hour and a half I finally had a beautiful solid tone on my underwater metal detector!
Thankfully, this was Eric’s 14k gold wedding band with the identifying marks of a MAPLE LEAF.
Don, Barb and I then proceeded to FaceTime Eric to surprise him with the good news!
Thank you to the completed wonderful strangers North Bay residents Don & Barb for agreeing to be my safety spotters. Also, thank you to the ring owner Eric and his Wife Megan for your generous donation to the Kelly Shires Breast Cancer Foundation! My reward goes to this amazing charity which I have been involved in for 15 years.
