Latest Testimonials

  • The Ring Finders is an amazing organization!
    testimonial for Dennis Boothby (2026)

    Item

    I am the owner of those rings and I can’t say enough wonderful things about Dennis and Gary!! They are amazing, dedicated, great communicators, and truly joyful adventurers…their love of helping others during challenging situations is pure and straight from the heart!! I had a hard time sleeping until the rings were found, always believing they were there, safely nestled in the snow until warmer weather! Dennis felt the same way! He wasn’t giving up after a few “no find” moments! The Ring Finders is an amazing organization!

    Dennis, your kindness and “can do” spirit is the personification of all things good in our small little corner of the world! Thank you!! Your number will stay in my contacts (though I hope to not have to call you for “business” again…lol) and I am so fortunate our paths crossed!

    Hugs and love!????????????????

  • If you need someone reliable and exceptional at what they do, I highly recommend Jerry
    testimonial for Jerry Van Buren (2026)

    Item

    I can’t say enough great things about Jerry. He was prompt, responsive, and immediately made me feel like my situation truly mattered. Losing my wedding ring on the beach felt hopeless, but Jerry approached the search with thoughtfulness, care, and professionalism.

    Against the odds, he found it—completely exceeding my expectations. His dedication, skill, and kindness turned a stressful moment into one I’ll always be grateful for.

    If you need someone reliable and exceptional at what they do, I highly recommend Jerry, do not hesitate to contact him.

  • Thank you so much, Philip. I’m truly grateful ...
    testimonial for Phillip Mendez (2026)

    Item

    Thank you so much, Philip. I’m truly grateful that you came out to help find my wedding band. I didn’t expect to hear back on a Sunday, so it meant a lot that you responded and took the time to help that day. I really appreciate it.

  • I highly recommend the ring finders (and Joe)
    testimonial for Joe Au-Franz (2026)

    Item

    I couldn’t have been more happy with your work!!!

    Joe showed up and found my ring within two hours of contacting him. I was sure I’d never see it again, given that it had already been days since I’d seen it. I spent the day raking sand with my husband, and we were certain the tide had taken it. Even in crappy weather, Joe was happy to lend a hand.

    I highly recommend the ring finders (and Joe) to anyone missing a sentimental item. There is no dollar amount that could replace the ring I was first given, and he humbly works for reward.

    Thank you again! This will be a story with a happy ending that I’ll tell forever.

  • Thanks again for coming out and helping us find the phone
    testimonial for Jim Wren (2026)

    Item

    Jim,

    Thanks again for coming out and helping us find the phone. I honestly didn’t expect it to be found that quickly. Jacob was really glad to get it back and see that it still worked.

    Really appreciate you coming out on short notice and helping us out. It was great meeting you.
