I wish for anyone who found a Class of 1969, Garden Grove High School Ring, Orange County California, USA Note: Zip Code(S) Original postal code (then) 92640, USPS Changed zip to 92840 now.
I attended Garden Grove High School from 1965 to 1969. The City Of Garden Grove, California USA 92640/92840.
I have lost this ring and It would mean so much to me if found. I attended the school at the time of a pricipal for the Garden Grove Unified School District when a City School Principal was Killed while he was riding a dirt bike on sand dunes while on vacation. A girl student who was driving a VW Sand Buggy met the principal at the top a sand dune, She turned Left instead of turning right and the principal "Donald Wash" was killed. Donald Wash had been a Professional Football Player for the Los Angeles "Ram's Team and due to knee injurys retired and was selected to be the Principal of a Continuation school named "Mendon Hall" in the Garden Grove School district. The late Mr. Donald Wash was a close friend who personally picked me up when hitch hiking to school.
Donald was a giant of a man, I saw where you could pass a Silver Dollar thru his wedding ring!(NO LIE,) His hands were so huge as a senior my hand was like a childs in his, in those days he had to use a pencil to dial the Rotary-Type Phone, Due to his fingers being too big to fit in the dialing holes! He was a good & Honest man. The Garden Grove High School dedicated it's auditorium to "The Don Wash Auditorium".
It is a 10K Ring with a Red Semi precious Stone. (A synthetic Ruby/Copy type.) Please contact me if found at this post. Thank You Kindly.

Just curious as to how these Honorable Mentions work? I see HM's in the info box of certain members. At what point do they go from this forum and get posted on a members info box? Thanks! BTW, getting used to the new format....Actually I have almost forgotten what the old one was like......

who knows how to add it to the members Profile gets the time and does it.

Hi Jeff,
I haven't posted much here, but just returned a gold Indian Chief ring that was lost for 20 years and it may be interested to members here. You can read the story here:

I'm not sure if it's OK to post a link to another metal detecting site or not. Please let me know. Thanks, Rob Mickatavage "MickTwin"

Hi Jeff,
I just realized there was a section like this on Tnet! I know, I must be blind! I've found and returned over 50 items through the years but only the last 21 have been logged and post on a web site. I'm a member of The Ring Finders and have a blog on that site with my finds, stories, and some photos. Is that good enough proof to satisfy the requirements??

good enough for this thread, but to earn a HM badge on your Profile,
Posts must be made direct on TreasureNet with Pictures.
not by link :icon_thumleft: thanks

I think I can do that. Where should I post them? I don't see a "start new thread" in this section. Should I use "lost and found"?

Yes Lost & found.

In order for posts to qualify for Honorable Mention they must be suggested by someone,
Then Moved in by a moderator if they qualify.

Did you Return a Ring to it's Owner ?

If you Did...

#1. Did You Post the Find when you Found It ?

#2. Did You Return The Item to its Owner ?

#3. Do You Have any Photographic Proof of this, Posted to your Thread ? (this can Consist of A picture of the Owner, A Thank you Letter, Newspaper Article or anything else to Show it was returned)

If You can Answer Yes to all 3 of these Conditions above...

I want the Link to your Post, so I can Include it in Our Honorable Members... Where members of distinction are honored.

Thank You !
Jeff
Hi Jeff,
I posted my ring find/return story in the lost and found section. Is there anything else I need to do? Who decides if it is worthy of an Honorable Mention? I don't see a way of voting like you would for a banner find. Thanks, Mark
