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.

Maria contacted me about the loss of her house, and wondered if I would be available to help her find some missing items that were left behind. I let her know when I would be free for the search, and we arranged to meet at a local restaurant because her house was in a gated community.

When I arrived I really wasn’t expecting what I saw. The house was partially standing, and it was built with a steel infrastructure which was all over the place. She told me that one of the most important items to find was a diamond engagement ring that had been given to her by her husband who had passed at an early age. she showed me where she last believed it had been, but on the second floor which was now on the first floor. So I began to work. I found many parts of figurines with a couple intact. I also found a bunch of doll arms and legs. I used a reciprocating saw to remove some of the steel beams in order to get at some of the rubble underneath them, and began finding coins. I felt I had found the area where the ring would be, so I kept sifting. I worked that area until I was scraping the floor all over, but no ring. After 5 hours, I had 168 coins, numerous doll arms and legs, and 2 intact chains along with 4 chain fragments.

Maria asked if I could come back to look again in a different area, so we agreed on another day for the search. When I arrived, Maria was already shoveling rubble to be sifted, and I got right to work. I worked for another 3 hours, and we were able to find the ring she really wanted to find as well as 2 others, and 2 earrings. With all of these searches I find that the people I am helping are hurt, very hurt, but not broken. There is a deep resilience in their character that I admire.

I did come back a 3rd time, and was only able to find a few chain fragments.

I received a call from Michelle asking for help in searching her burned home, We agreed on a day to conduct the search.

When I arrived I could see the home was completely gutted. Michelle and her husband David met me, and explained that they, some fire fighters, and their friends had searched the site, and recovered most of what they were looking for with the exception of a few items. I began looking for one of the items, and then Michelle asked if I would redirect my attention to another area of the house where she had lost something of great sentimental value to her. It was a small bronze sculpture of the mythological Greek Goddess Athena’s helmet that she had had for many years that was associated with someone she admired. The previous searches turned up the head dress of the helmet, but not the helmet. She showed where it had been, so I began my search. After about 30 minutes of searching, a little rounded object no bigger than a tennis ball came out of the rubble. I picked it up, it was heavy, and formed. I turned it around and saw the shape, then called out to Michelle who got very excited that this memory was still intact. So very happy to be of help.

I received a call from Marqus asking if I could help find his mother’s jewelry. Her home of 30 years had burned in the Altadena fire a couple of weeks ago, and although they had gone back looking 3 times, they were unable to find much of anything. He told me that she had a lot of jewelry, and really needed to find it. I let them know I was available to help them, so we arranged a time for us to meet at the site for the search.

We met at a local fast food restaurant, and then I followed Marqus and his mother to the site. Driving through the destruction was just surreal. It looked like a movie set, and made my heart drop to know that so many people lost so much of what they worked their lives for. So many memories, all gone so fast.

When we got to the house there wasn’t much. Marqus and his mother showed me where I should look for her jewelry, and so I began a meticulous search of each area they showed me. In the first area, where she said her best jewelry was, I found among other small items, a very large clump of melted gold that had formed around one of the bed legs. In another area where the silver was stored, I was able to find a lot of it (all melted), so much that it filled a basket. In the third area, I had to break apart a wall that had fallen in to access the last area, and there I found a whole bunch of somewhat intact jewelry, I think the wall may have protected it from completely melting down. I was able to fill a plastic container with all of that jewelry which included at least 7 watches, bracelets, rings, and necklaces. After a total of about 3 hours, I was able to help provide closure for Marqus’ mom. It was a very humbling day for me.

Gold Wedding Ring Lost in Volley Ball Court at Manhattan Beach…Found and Happily Returned.

Renan contacted me right about sunset asking for help in finding his wedding ring. He had been playing volley ball when as he was striking the ball, his ring flew off of his finger. He, his wife, and friends searched for the ring, but were unable to find it. Also he was on vacation from Brazil, and was not cherishing the thought of leaving it in the USA when he returned home. I was available, and left right away.

When I arrived, it was already dark, but that is not a hindrance for a search at the beach. Renan took me over to the court, and showed me what he had done when striking the ball. I began by searching the most logical possible path the ring probably took when coming off of his hand. I searched just behind where he was standing, right where he was standing, and all the way to the other end of the court from where he was standing, and got nothing but a few pull tabs. At this time I decided to search the whole court, and 10 feet outside of it, searching both sides; nothing again. Now it was time to do a cross grid in order to insure I didn’t miss the ring because it was in a weird position. I began my cross grid on the side he was on originally, and when I got to the center of the court, which was behind and to his right (the ring was on the left hand) by 15 feet, I got a scratchy signal, dug, and scooped up a very thin gold ring. Renan’s friend came right over and identified the ring, and everyone rejoiced. He now can go home with his token of love for his wife of two years.

Meghan contacted me on December 22 regarding her lost ring. She had been on a volley ball court at the beach when it became lost, and because she was getting ready to travel, she was unable to meet me for the search. I let her know I would be able to help, but would need as much information as possible in order to find the ring. She agreed, and began to provide what I needed.

When I got to the beach, I found what I believed was the court to search, and began. I went over much of the court, and then decided to call Meghan to make sure I had everything correct. When we spoke I found that I had been searching the court next to the one she had been on, so I switched, and withing 5 minutes, I was able to let her know the ring was safe. She told me that she would be coming back after January 4th, so we met on the 8th for the return, This ring, made from a silver French Frank was to be her future wedding ring, so it had a great sentimental value for her. I was happy to help.

I received a call from Erik asking if I was available to help in finding a ring lost in the sand at the beach. I was, and let him know that I could be there soon. We arranged to meet there so he could show me where to look.

When I arrived I met Erik and his girlfriend Rowan, and they explained that Rowan had removed her jewelry in order to go out in the surf, but when getting ready put her jewelry back on, she found that one of her rings was missing. She told me how the ring had been in the family for numerous generations, and was given to her by her mother, so the sentimentality of the ring was strong. She said she was on vacation from Vermont, and was fearful the ring would be lost forever. I could see in the sand their search area, and began my search at the edge of it. I received a couple of signals, but the items were so small they fell through the scoop. Then right in the middle of their search area I received a strong signal, dug, and had Rowan’s ring. I called them over to let them know it was found, and she was very happy to know she would be able to go back home with her family treasure.

Taylor contacted me about the loss of her husband’s wedding ring. She had been with him at a volleyball event the day before at the beach. He took the ring off to go in the water, and left it with the beach stuff. When they got ready to go Taylor picked everything up forgetting the ring was there, and the ring was gone in the sand. They looked for as long as they could without any luck. When she called she let me know she would not be able to meet me there, but was able to give me directions as to where to look. I went as soon as possible.

When I arrived at the beach, I was able by the map, and photos to figure where to begin my search. I also noticed that the beach cleaning machines had gone through, but not all the way into the area I was going to search. I began a tight grid going just into where the machines had been. Back and forth, back and forth, and not finding much. After about 20 minutes I began to find some tinfoil, and bottle caps, so I figured I had found the area where they had been the day before. Then right at the edge of the County clean zone I got a solid signal, dug, and found the ring. I sent Taylor a picture, and she confirmed it was her husband’s ring. We met later that day at a local Starbucks to make the return, and she was very happy to have it back.

I received a call from Carolyn telling me she had lost her phone in the sand at the beach. It was already dark, and searching for it was tough for her. She was there with some friends, and in their visit she became detached from the phone unknowingly, so she wasn’t exactly sure where it was lost but had a general idea. I let her know I would be coming soon to help her.

When I got there we found each other quickly. We discussed what happened, and also where the loss probably occurred. I turned on my machine, swung a couple of times, got a good signal, and within 30 seconds, I was able to hand Carolyn back her phone. She was very happy, and her friends celebrated with her.

Grace contacted me after having lost her phone the night before in the sand at the beach. My hopes weren’t high because I know the beach is machine cleaned often, but she said it was still showing it was there on her app. We arranged to meet for the search, and I was on my way.

When I got there Grace met me, and took me out to the area where she had been the night before, and where the phone was signaling from. I turned my machine on, and it took all of 30 seconds to find her phone under about 3 inches of sand. She was happy to have it back, and this made her vacation from Indiana complete; so glad to help.
