Below is a letter I received from Kyle and Danielle Wolpert. They lost a beautifl ring in the summer of 2013 and I was thrilled to be a part of helping to fing it.
Hi Rob,
Once again, we are truly thankful for all you did to help us with our lost
ring and will never forget that you came out to search that day and
continued to help us by posting it. I have written out my story below in
case you would like to post it to your website. We are looking forward to
following your website and all of the great things that you do!
Thanks and all our best!
Kyle and Danielle
On Saturday, August 17, I was swimming in the ocean and throwing a ball
around with my cousins at Ponce Inlet, FL when I felt something hard bounce
off my finger when reaching to catch the ball. When I looked down at my
hand, my wedding ring was gone. As it was my grandfather's ring, I became
very upset after our attempts to find it using only our feet were
unsuccessful.
The next day, my wife began searching the internet as she believed there
must be a service or someone you can hire to search for lost jewelry with
a metal detector. On our way home from Florida that Monday, we contacted
Florida Rob. My parents were going to be in Florida until Wednesday so they
met up with him at the beach and he spent the whole day searching the waters
for my ring. From what I am told, the weather was not entirely cooperative
that day and made the search even more difficult. Rob was not able to find
the ring, but posted my story on the metal detecting club website in case
others wished to pursue the search.
While at work on Friday, I received a phone call from Rob and I immediately
let him know how appreciative I was of his efforts despite not being able to
find my ring. Rob then explained to me that two individuals, Ken and Toby,
went out that day and might have found it. I was silent and then asked Rob
to repeat what he had said as I was certain I had heard him incorrectly.
There was no way anybody could have found it?!! It turns out I heard
correctly and the ring was found. Rob provided Ken and Toby with my phone
number and after a brief conversation with them I was certain that the ring
they found was mine! Such a spectacular ending to this story required a
trip back to Florida to retrieve my ring in person. Besides, I was not
about to risk it being lost in the mail after it was rescued from the bottom
of the ocean 6 days after I lost it! My wife and I flew out to FL that
evening and met Toby and Ken the next day. A week after losing my ring
in chest deep water while in the ocean, I had it back on my finger! It was
found buried ankle deep in the sand underwater.
My wife and I are truly thankful, not only for Toby and Ken finding the
ring, but for Rob going out for the first search and posting the story with
a perfect description. Without him coming out that day my ring would likely
be gone forever.

Diamond Earring found and returned...
November 20, 2013. FloridaRob returning the lost earring. White gold with black diamonds.

Wednesday November 20, 2013. I was out on my weekly Wednesday hunt when I received a phone call from Jerry Fournier. He had found me on my website. He was desperate to find a lost very valuable earring and asked for my help. I had my gear and was able to head right over to his home. He told me he had been playing basketBall and had taken off the earrings which were white gold with many many black diamonds. He had them in his vehicle until he returned home. He put them in his top pocket before getting out of his vehicle and once inside his home realized he had a hole in his pocket and one of the earrings was missing. He had looked for 2 days including raking and scouring his yard with no luck. After about 30 minutes I was able to retrieve the lost earring and make Jerry very happy.
