Utah Pilot’s Titanium Wedding Ring Found
Tuesday, January 26th, 2010It was such a tragedy when the young, twenty-eight year old pilot from Utah went down with his jet in a remote area at night and lost his life. His young widow, Josie was devastated and she wanted something of her husband’s to keep with her. She hoped that his wedding ring could have been salvaged. That was what she asked for when they told her about what happened.
Pilots are not allowed to wear their rings when they are flying so like most other pilots, George, too, used to keep his wedding band in the pocket of his flight suit. It seemed highly unlikely that it could be found but it looked like a miracle when it was. Since that was all she had asked for, a team of volunteers was pressed into the job and they recovered the ring. Today, Josie wears it on a chain around her neck.
