After my wife died, I took her wedding ring home with me. In less than three days it disappeared (I suspect the garbage disposal in the sink) and never turned up again. Then, within a couple of days, my own wedding ring disappeared of (apparently) its own volition. These were relatively recent (at the time) 2nd generation wedding rings for us; the originals with which we were married no longer fitting either Harriet or myself. Those two original rings I still have ... and look at from time to time.
