On October 19th, a friend of Kristin Deaton of Jupiter, Florida was in town visiting after the unexpected passing of her mother, and accidentally dropped a very sentimental ring into the intracoastal at the marina behind U-Tiki Beach.

“This is the longest of long shots, but I believe in the good in people, and I need people to please SHARE this.” Deaton wrote on Facebook, “If anyone in the Jupiter area finds this VERY sentimental ring, PLEASE contact me. Yes, I’m aware it will probably take divers to recover it at this point, but in the off chance that it washes up somewhere, or is found, I will absolutely pay a reward. PLEASE SHARE in hopes that we can find this precious ring for our sweet friend!”
