Woman who accidentally threw engagement ring in toilet found 13 years later daily mail.
Mary Strand, 71, and her husband David, 75, from Minnesota, have been married for 46 years. 13 years ago the couple celebrated their 33rd wedding anniversary and the husband gave the American woman a diamond ring. However, the man accidentally chose a larger piece of jewelry, so his finger slipped into the toilet while the woman was in the bathroom.
Mary thought she had lost the ring forever, but a few weeks ago she got a call saying the ring had been found at a water treatment plant near her home more than a decade later.
The ring was found by repair workers. It took them about a week to find the owner of the jewel and its contacts.
