A Baltimore woman’s wedding band was lost for nearly 2 years. Here’s how she got it back

BALTIMORE WBAL A Baltimore woman s wedding ring was lost for two years A monthly society clean-up at the Canton square helped her get it back I was pretty surprised I hadn t checked the Canton Neighbors Facebook page group but my daughter called me and mentioned Mom your ring is identified ' commented Kathy Noble I thought it was gone forever Noble s daughter Heather Linington-Noble announced she hardly goes on Facebook She decided to one day last week and the first post that popped up was a photo of her mother s ring I looked at it and I saw this post saying Anybody lost a ring And I saw the picture before I read it I was like That really looks like my mom s lost ring but there s no way because it has been lost for a long time ' Linington-Noble noted I read it and I was like Oh my goodness I just this instant commented That s my mom s ring ' The post came from Kayla Powers who explained she was participating in her restaurant group s monthly public clean-up at the square I was picking up cigarette butts under the benches and I detected her gold ring smashed into the mud Powers commented It had an engraving on it and a year so I figured I d post it on our neighborhood Facebook group just to see if someone would recognize it The ring was so old I didn t have a lot of hope The little bit of hope she had was just enough as Linington-Noble was able to connect both Powers and her mother I got her phone number dropped it off at her house and she was so elated commented Powers I m so happy a small area could come together and get it back to her safely Noble reported she lost the ring in the same year her daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer It was pretty disappointing I mean was a really bad year for us because our daughter had very serious breast cancer Compared to that it was kind of irrelevant commented Noble I didn t fret about it too much Plus my friends had guilt-tripped my husband into getting me a new one While Noble had a new ring it wasn t engraved and it doesn t hold the same sentiment as her original wedding band was a very hard year for all of us Linington-Noble reported But I think that that makes it even harder that it was lost and even more meaningful that it was uncovered again Now Liningto-Noble is cancer-free and her mother conclusively has back the ring she once had on her finger to symbolize her over years of marriage I am very appreciative it was very nice to realize that somebody would go to the trouble to try to find me and it worked Noble revealed Part of the reason I don t go on Facebook very often right now is I feel like I m kind of hiding from everything so I don t get stressed out about what s going on in the world So it was nice to log on one day and see the first thing I see is this Linington-Noble declared I just want to thank Kayla for finding it for one for taking the time with her coworkers to come out and work on cleaning up the square and taking the time to directly try to find the owner all of that together is lovely Noble announced the original ring was a little big on her hand and she thinks she may have lost it while picking up after her dog Now she has two rings on her finger one symbolizing her and her husband s commitment over years ago and one to remind her of this memory
