An elderly man in Germany lost his wedding ring three years ago, not long after he and his wife celebrated their golden wedding anniversary. He was working in the garden at the time. Despite a thorough search, the ring was not found. His wife said it would turn up someday. She did not live to see it, as she died just a few months ago. This fall, the now 83-year-old gardener was harvesting carrots and one of them was wearing his wedding ring!
