In September 2014, a 21 year old commercial & recreational diver, Daniel Roark, found a wedding band while scuba diving at Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. Daniel made it his mission to find the rightful owners of the ring via social media. After creating a very popular Facebook post that included a picture of the ring and the trendy hashtag #thelostweddingband, the post was shared more than 200k times and Daniel received more than 50 messages from false owners trying to attain he ring. Two months after the post went live, a cousin of Jessica Garza, the newlywed wife who’s husband had lost the ring, contacted Daniel who then provided photos and a receipt to prove the wedding band did in fact belong to her cousin’s husband. Martin Castillo, Jessica’s husband, stated the ring had slipped off his finger while scuba diving at Barracuda Point. Both Jessica and Martin are beyond grateful for this miracle find. As for Daniel, he is currently planning a trip to Mexico in the hopes of returning the ring.
