RETURN OF THE RINGMASTER: WAYNE & CHERYL'S STORY
At the January 2010 general meeting, club vice-president Wayne Burke told the story about how he found a class ring at a local high school, and with Ken Vargas' help was able to locate its owner, Cheryl Remos, and return it to her. The ring was lost a long time ago by Cheryl, who did not even go to that school and no longer lives in California. Coincidentally, the day Wayne called to tell her he found her ring happened to be her birthday.
Wayne displayed the ring at the meeting for all to see and enjoy, then shipped the ring to Cheryl the very next day. In response to his touching story, Wayne won Find-of-the-Month 1st Place for his overall presentation. Please see the February 2010 issue of The Treasure Trove for the complete version of Wayne and Cheryl's story, written by Ken Vargas.
