TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Decades Later Woman Gets Back Her Lost Wedding Ring Just In Time For Valentine’s Day

I love a good lost and found story. This one couldn’t be any better heading into Valentine’s Day Weekend.

A woman who lives in San Antonio lost her wedding ring 48 years ago where she used to live in Chicago. She dropped it in the snow outside her grandparents house in 1973 and never found it.

Fast forward to present day… the person who lives in that house now was gardening and found the ring while digging in the dirt. She posted a photo of it on Facebook and two people in her town’s historical society noticed initials engraved on the band. They started to play detective and eventually found out whose it was by searching through old property records.

They got in touch with the woman and gave her the ring back almost 50 years later. Crazy!
