Ring Found After 50 Years

Описание: A high school ring is returned to its owner after it went missing for half a century. Bobby Southerland bought the ring 50 years ago in anticipation of graduating from Crabtree Iron Duff High School in 1964. But a week later, he lost it while working on a farm near his Haywood County home. An arrowhead hunter spotted it in a recently plowed field last week, and a longtime resident figured out the ring's initials, B.G.S belong to Bobby Gene Southerland and he was reunited with his class ring. He says he ll keep it but not wear it, afraid he might lose it again. He says he wants to hold onto it for the stories his six grandchildren can tell. By Rex HodgeFollow Rex on Twitter @RexHodgeWLOS
