Thought I would let you know, I met with the owner of this ring today. He is now a retired school principal and now selling insurance. He did not seem to care that my wife and I had made a 40 mile trip to return something that he had lost 40 years ago. I barely got a thank you. Never did we get and offer to set down in his home. Please do not get me wrong here, I was only looking for a little appreciation. I didn't seem to get it.
Anyway, I feel very good in what I did. And, I will do it again if ever I can.
I want to thank all of you for your comments in my original post. It is an honor to be associated with all of you great people on "TresureNet". I really do enjoy reading about all of your finds.
ringfinder, I really liked your story, and Boobydoo, I want to thank you ever so much for the kind words you gave to me.
Like all of you know, good things do happen to people that do the right thing. I said in my original post that "White's Electronics" was interested enough in my story on the first ring I returned that they posted it on their website. Two days ago, I received a $200.00 gift certificate in the mail. Very, very nice gift.
I hope all of you have a great weekend and find many treasures.
Friends, John
