So I guess when they gave him a call, they were literally giving him a "ring"...

LOL, DRAGON. However, how did they know who the ring belongs too, the story doesn't give much details. Writer must have been bored.

David Perry graduated from Miami High with my Daddy, Bill Harkness. They both went on together to Georgia Tech. My parents have such fond memories of David after college, she recalls dropping him off at his ship, the Destroyer "STORMS" when he was in the Navy and my Daddy was in the Army. David was a groomsman in their wedding, and often visited. Please let him know we would like to get in touch with him.
I can be reached at khgator@comcast.net. Can you let him know we would like to contact him after all these years? |

If possible, can you let David Perry know that the family of Bill Harkness would like to contact him or hear from him.
Bill Harkness, my Daddy, graduated with him from Miami High in 1948 and they both went on to Georgia Tech- they were best friends and he was in my parents wedding and we would just like to say Hi after all these years. My Dad's class ring is exactly like David's except Dad was a Pike and David was Sigma Chi. Karen Harkness |

David's ring and my Dad's ring has their name, degree, date enscribed on the inside of the ring and their fraternity is mounted on top of the stone in gold. Both the records at Georgia Tech Alumni and the fraternity could have information on where to find their former student and member.(or Boeing, or the Navy). |
Judge it!
