MIAMI (AP) - When David Perry lost his class ring at Crandon
Beach 50 years ago, he thought it was gone forever.
But the Miami High grad got a surprising phone call this weekend
at his home in Seattle.
A Davie teacher found his ring, buried beneath a foot of sand on
the ocean floor, not far from the Key Biscayne coast.
Jorge Balmori and his sons like to spend weekends searching for
underwater treasures with a metal detector. They found Perry's ring
and tracked him down.
Seventy-seven-year-old Perry -- who is a retired Naval Reserve
captain and aerospace engineering manager -- says he was stunned.
He chatted on the phone with Balmori and said they planned to keep
in touch.
