Ring and Owner Reunited after 46 Years

A heartwarming librarian story.

Mary Lou Fioramonti had owned her class ring from Liverpool High School for three months when she lost it in the Jamesville Reservoir in 1963.
“I cried,” she said. “It took six months of babysitting to pay for that ring.”
Fioramonti (now Mailhot) said she and a group of friends had gone swimming in the reservoir one hot afternoon that summer. When she got out of the water, she discovered the ring was gone. “I looked around on the ground, but I didn’t find it,” Mailhot said. “I thought it was at the bottom of the reservoir and I’d never see it again.”
