Snyder Finds High School, College Rings
Posted on: Wednesday, 25 June 2003, 06:00 CDT
Tom Snyder lost his high school and college class rings. Today, more than 50 years later, he has both of them back.
His high school class ring was found by Jean Neumann, who now lives in a house the Snyder family once called home. Neumann was cleaning some cabinets when the ring, with the initials "TS," came tumbling down.
Lori Foy was moving earth in her back yard when she found Snyder's class ring from the University of Notre Dame.
"I was digging and loosening up the dirt when I heard this clank sound, like I hit metal," said Foy, who also lives in a house once occupied by the Snyder family.
Foy cleaned the ring and saw the initials "TS" and "1951" inscribed. She knew Snyder and his connection to her home, so she didn't have a hard time figuring out who the ring belonged to. She and a friend gave Snyder a call.
"I was sleeping...so I said I would come over the next day, but they insisted it had to be now," Snyder said.
He's taken both rings to a jeweler to be resized.
