A Genesee County woman is counting her blessings after she lost her wedding ring in a waterfall ? only to have it returned by an upstanding citizen.
"And I go, ?you're kidding me, oh my God no, you're kidding me'," said LeLonnie Alexander on the moment she was reunited with her wedding ring.
She lost it during a vacation in northern Michigan while at a waterfall, and figured it was gone for good. "I slipped and fell down into the water and I'm waving my hands back and forth ? and all of a sudden the ring flies off and I said, ?I lost my ring.'"
After a long search in the water, Alexander lost all hope of finding it. She?notified the campground area police department and posted about her lost ring on social media. Several days later, she received a phone call.
"I got a call and they asked me to describe my ring because they thought somebody had found it," said Alexander.
A boy all the way from Nashville, TN, heard about what had happened. When his family visited the waterfall while on vacation, he decided to search for the ring himself.
"He heard about the story and went into the water with his little snorkel and his mask," explained Alexander.
And he found the $4,000 ring.
This week his family returned it to Alexander. She says she can't thank the boy enough for his honesty. "I get goose bumps because that little boy deserves every bit of praise that he can get," gushed Alexander.
Now the ring holder says she's doing whatever she can to make sure she doesn't lose her ring ever again. "This baby's getting insured and resized," said Alexander.
Alexander?did give?the boy a $200 reward for returning her ring.
