She took the ring off to wash her hands … and forgot to put it back on.

Imagine the horror that Libby Dahl must have felt when she realized that she left her $32,000 engagement ring in the women’s bathroom of Mineta San Jose International Airport in California, as 6 ABC explains. The article says that she went to the bathroom after she landed, took her ring off to wash her hands, and forgot to put it back on as she hurried to catch a waiting Uber car. When she realized her mistake and doubled back to the bathroom, it was too late – the ring was gone.

Looking for a Seamless Sale? Call Wilkerson

After almost 60 years in business, Breakiron Jewelers in Erie, Pennsylvania, was closing its doors. And the store’s owner, Linda Breakiron, was ready for it. She had run the store as its sole owner since the beginning of the millennium and was looking forward to a change. Of course, she called Wilkerson. Breakiron talked to other jewelers who had used Wilkerson and was satisfied with their response. “They always had positive feedback,” she recalls. With the sales, marketing and even additional inventory that Wilkerson provided, Breakiron insists she could never have accomplished her going-out-of-business sale without Wilkerson’s help. She’s now ready for the journey ahead, but looking back, she’d be sure to recommend Wilkerson. “They just made the whole process very seamless.”
