As a little girl was walking along the City Market parking lot, she discovered a ring much more valuable than the diamonds embedded in it.

After a fun evening at the movies, 5-year-old Sky Pierce walked with her aunt and brother into City Market. As they walked through the parking lot, a glimpse of something shiny caught her eye.

Sky had found a diamond wedding ring. She immediately showed it to her aunt, Christina Ireland. Sky was eager to find the ring’s owner. The family went into City Market and left it with customer service.

Earlier that day, Joyce Weatherill, 81, had gone shopping at City Market. As she was carrying her bags out to her car, the plastic handles slowly pulled the ring off her finger.

Weatherill has worn that ring since she married her husband of 54 years. Once she put her bags away, she noticed the void left by her missing ring. Immediately retracing her steps, she walked back through the parking lot with wide eyes.
