April Schmitt who returned from Los Angeles California to Pittsburgh Pennsylvania from a business trip when she lost the diamond from her engagement ring her husband gave her in 1992 when she was retrieving her ring at the baggage carousel at the Pittsburgh International Airport on Friday June 13.
April was sad that she lost her ring when she asked airport maintenance staff to find her missing ring.
The airport employees removed panels from the carousel when they found the missing ring after April went home empty handed 90 minutes later.
April received the good news four hours later that her missing ring was found; April then returned to the airport to retrieve her ring. April is grateful that the employees at the airport went the extra mile to find her ring.

Oh no! As someone who lost his college ring it feels heartbreaking. So glad they were able to locate it.

@Deepizzaguy It is close to impossible to be really honest.

Finding rings inside of airport can be a hard task due to the fact that someone else could have picked up the other passengers or being in a hard place to recover.

It was good that they got onto looking for it right away, as with the passing or time, it could have well been swept away by a cleaner.

The staff went above and beyond to take the carousel apart.
