Search on for owner of 60-year-old wedding ring

PHILADELPHIA -- You could call Diane Dietz a ring bearer of sorts.

But not for a wedding, at least not any wedding she's in. She's actually in possession of a ring worn in a wedding 60 years ago, but was apparently lost by its owner.

She found the ring in a parking lot in front of a Target store in Philadelphia.

"I looked and at first I didn't notice it had an inscription," Dietz told CBS Philadelphia. "It looks like my father's wedding band."

But the ring, which she ironically found on Valentine's Day, belongs to a couple with the initials MRS and JRS who were married in 1955.

"I felt terrible. Sixty years is a long time to have something on your finger only to lose it? I'd be very upset about that," said Dietz.

Since then she's been on a quest to find the original owner of the ring in hopes they could be reunited and the circle of love be complete once again.

She's been looking hard, too. Trying several sources, but still coming up with a dead end.

"I went on Facebook, I went on Ancestry.com, I called Target and reported it to them, I put it on Craisglist."

But she got nowhere.

"Nothing, everybody just kept saying how bad they felt."

She wound up calling CBS Philadelphia, believing maybe the Channel 3 reporters could help her out.

Staffers there looked up marriage records in the area, but without at least one last name, the search comes up empty.

Still the station is asking anyone with a clue to contact them on Facebook or Twitter.

"I watch Channel 3 and said let's give it a shot," Dietz said. "Worst you could say is no, but maybe you'd get lucky."
