A woman lost the diamond from her engagement ring at the Pittsburgh Airport

After a stressful trip, April Schmitt lost the diamond from her engagement ring at Pittsburgh International Airport. Airport staff searched for hours and found the gem beneath a baggage carousel, restoring her faith and turning misfortune into a miracle.

April, returning from Los Angeles, noticed the diamond on her engagement ring was missing at Pittsburgh International Airport. After her initial search, the maintenance staff, led by Tom Riordan and Steve Turkaly, persisted. Using improvised tools, they eventually found the diamond under the carousel. Schmitt expressed gratitude for their efforts, stating it restored her faith in humanity. “These men didn’t know me at all,” she said. “They knew nothing about how long I’ve been married. They knew nothing about my husband or the stone or the sentimental value or the economic value, but that didn’t matter; they were just committed to doing the right thing.”
