20 Year Later Class Ring Reunion – Honesty Story #15
February 28th, 2007
Picture this…you’re on a family vacation in Hawaii and you lose your class graduation ring. You go back home to mainland U.S. disappointed and sad to have lost such a valuable memory. Then over 20 years later, your parents surprise you with your 1984 class ring. Can you believe that?! When I read this story on the Good News Blog, I couldn’t help but to imagine the look of surprise and almost shock this man must have had when he saw his class ring.
According to this story, the finder discovered the topaz ring when he was snorkeling off the coast of Maui. Phil Winter from California saved the ring as a souvenir in his wife’s jewelry box. One day, his daughter found it and wanted to wear it. Something then triggered Phil Winter to try and find the ring’s rightful owner. Together with his daughter’s school teacher, they eventually found the owner. So they shipped the ring in a box to the Upper Southampton’s Township home of James Constantini’s parents. I have to say that I truly admire not only Phil Winter’s honesty, but also his determination to find the owner of the ring.
