Stevie,

Thanks so much for the personal reply!

How about posting a picture of your dad?

Hello Clovis, I posted a picture of me and my pa on here. This was about a year or so before he passed. I think the picture is a neat ending to the story. You may have to scroll down to see it but it may automatically move up in time. Take Care and Good Luck, My Friend, Steviewhite

What a nice thing you did, and what a loser the recipient was. I bet he hocked it already to supplement his job at mcdonalds.

Hello Nathatniel Spogsworthy,

Thanks for the reply. Many people in the world today have lost, what used to be, the appreciation for each other and compassion for each other. It seems like they are only concerned about what they can obtain from one another. The world is a rat race - and the rats are winning. It was fun finding the SBR, and a great find for me. Many people got to see their first real SBR. I am looking forward to findng many more neat things this summer. Getting cabin fever here with all the snow we are getting. Have a good one, and hope to see you again on here, with a great find. Take care ane keep loop swinging my TH friend, Steviewhite

[/quoteHello underarock, I know what you mean about throwing it back in. You wander about some people. You wander what the world is coming to. What happened to gratitude and appreciation. Well, Its sad but enjoyed the find and returning it. I still think THers are a breed apart. Have a good hunt and thanks for the reply. Steviewhite

Steve, I know what you mean about people today. My story and i'll make it short but it was a honorable mention posting if I ever heard of one. I ran a 5 man landscaping crew and one day while we were doing leaf clean-up i went to clean out a bush of its leaves, when i see one of those metal close-able clip-boards. You know the one contractors use in the field. Upon picking it up it was opened up and papers were on the ground right next to it. So I gathered up the papers. That is when the first $100 bill showed itself. So I went into this thing to see what was there. It was all bills recorded for jobs done. The information inside was for a garage door company and showed a years worth of transactions with all these bills. So Going through them i find the first check and then a second well after 8 un-cashed checks later and $1800 in cash, I found a phone number to the company who lost this clip board. I called them and told them what i found to find out that the installer has been looking for that for 2 weeks. He told me he was on the verge of getting fired for losing that. So he asked if he could meet with me,so i tod him surei would be there for the duration of the day. sure enough he was there in a hr. I gave it back to him and he could not thank me enough for saving him. I told him your welcome and that is when he says "let me give you something for this." I told him that was nice but he did not have to do it. He replied "Yes I do" he reached into his pocket and the next words out of his mouth were, Awe i don't have any cash on me!!" I said that is fine. He left that was it never heard of this again. The other side of this story, I was in debt, was about to lose my place, and was struggling to just eat at that time in life. I had no money on me at the time and was about to borrow just for lunch that day. All told there was $4500 in there with about 2k in cash..............................................still haven't heard anything from karma yet...........................

You have past what ever test it was with flying colors. Wow,25 Gs and no reward.. Just don't seem right.

Stevie,
You did a great and honorable thing by returning the ring. And what you did speaks volumes about your father's character and the way he raised you. My father passed unexpectedly in 2005, never a day passes that I don't think about him or reach for the phone to call him and share some event or thought I've had that day. I so miss sitting on his porch out in the country and talking to him. He wasn't world famous but to me he was the most important man alive. I'm a junior so I also share his name, I try to live my life in a way that compliments that name and would make him proud. We are a product of our father's efforts to raise us. You have complimented your father to the max. I can say, because of how you have acted after finding this valuable piece of jewelry, that your father too was a very good and honest man. You are a testament to his character and honesty.

That said, I am somewhat saddened that the NFL player didn't offer you some kind of reward, even something small. His actions after you returned his ring makes me think that his father wasn't the quality man yours was or didn't raise him to fully appreciate a good act done him. How a person shows their appreciation for a good deed done them says a lot about that person's character in my opinion. Of course that just my opinion, my 2¢ as they say. I don't know if the player realizes it or not, but you are the rare man by returning the ring to him. Many men would not have done such an honest thing. You sir, are the one in a hundred. The player has been smiled on by Lady Luck and he needs to appreciate it. You are a good man and I'm honored to be a member of a site where you too have a membership. Thank you for representing us here by setting a high standard of character. May Karma reward you with many great finds.

Stevie,

You did the right thing and I'm sure your father is saying, "That's my BOY!" An honest man is in short supply these days and when we all have to give an accounting of our lives your character will speak for itself. If you have children, you've just set a wonderful example for them to follow and have set a wonderful example for the THing community.

Thank You,
Treasure Writer

Good job. I wish you luck.

Shame on that player for not offering a reward. You did the right thing but he did not live up to his end of the transaction. I am glad that you devulged his name so that his shame will be known and if I find his ring in the future he probably will not get a call from me.

I just want to say that this forum is amazing

I think Mr. Darren Barnet is not half the man you are! Shame!

Hi Alice, thanks for the kind words, my friend. It was good to meet you. You are such a sweet lady. I found a beautiful diamond ring at Summersville Lake today. I have 7 gold so far this summer. It's always nice to meet a sweet person like you. Not too many sweet people around any more. If you see me treasure hunting in the future, be sure to say hi to me, ok? God Be With You. Steviewhite
