A Canadian woman in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia recently found out her wedding(婚礼) ring and other important metals went missing.

After washing the rings, Alexandra Stokal placed them on a paper towel(厚纸巾) to dry. Not knowing about this, her husband accidentally threw away the paper towels, rings and all. “When my father died, my mother bought us all a ring to remember that, so it was a big mix of things that meant a lot to me,” she explained.

Once Alexandra and her husband knew that the rings were no longer in their home, they contacted(联系) the Cape Breton Regional Municipality Solid Waste transfer facility(布雷顿角市政固体废物转运设施组) in hopes they could help. “The chances are very small, but we said we’d try our best,” said J.B. O’Brien, CBRM Foreman. “It seemed that we had to look at a thousand bags or more.”

The chance of them actually finding these valuable rings seemed small, but Alexandra still had hope. Then, after more than two hours of searching, a man named Chris Ward discovered not one but all of the rings! According to J.B., the discovery made Alexandra cry.

“I just gave him the biggest hug and I was so appreciative, and not only to him, but to the team of people that stayed on their Friday to help me find the rings,” Alexandra said. “I’m very seldom at a loss for words, but when we found the rings, I was speechless.”
