ring returned
I was able to locate the owner because the inside of the ring had her full name and middle initial, very unique last name so no problem finding her in the phonebook. I called her on the phone and she was able to describe the ring perfectly ,drove to her house later this afternoon and presented the ring to her. Everybody was very happy!, she certainly wears a lot of rings maybe I'll find one of the other ones. All in all a very good day for me

Re: ring returned
I wouldn't be surprised if she decided to look into the hobby herself after getting that ring back.

You helped put the hobby in a positive light. Maybe her dad is the groundskeeper for Lambeau Field or something like that. Ya never know.

Re: ring returned
That's an odd place to wear a high school ring... You are a good person to have sought her out and returned her ring, she seemed awfully happy! It most always comes back to you when you do something nice, and then some.
