WINNER #1
My favorite find for September 2011 is the sentimental family ring found by Rene’ C. from Cantanhede, Portugal.
In 1956, Rene’s grandparents married. As a wedding gift, Rene’s grandfather gave to his new wife (Rene’s grandmother) a special gold ring which had been worn for years by his mother who had passed away. A month after the wedding, Rene’s grandmother lost the ring on the farm during harvest time and cried for a long time about losing it.
Rene’ tells us, “After I heard the story, I bought a Garrett Ace 250 metal detector and promised to myself, no matter what, I would find it. One day after 5 months of hard work I found it, not in the land my grandmother told me about, but in a near path. I waited for their wedding anniversary to give it to them. I will remember that day as the most magical day of my life, seeing tears coming down their faces. After that, my life changed in a special way.”
Thank you Rene’ for sharing this loving story with us.
