Marlene Kiraly asked her husband`s help in hiding a 3.5 carat uninsured diamond ring that her mother had given her just before her mother passed away. Her husband hit the ring, all right. Not even he could find it. The Kiralys eventually moved away and the ring remained behind. The new owner, John Kilcooley was working on a renovation in his bathroom last month. He found the ring in a bag behind a light fixture in the bathroom. Kilcooley took the trouble to track down the previous owners and return the ring. Kiraly was thrilled. Kilcooley says he could have sold the ring, but he knew what he would have wanted someone to do if it were his.
The Kiralys are helping out the Kilcooleys as a reward by repairing their outdoor screens that were damaged by the hurricanes.
