28 years later, Maine woman gets stolen ring back

AUBURN, Maine — A Maine woman’s high school class ring is back in her possession 28 years after it was stolen.

Michelle Bilodeau of Auburn hadn’t seen her Edward Little High School class of 1983 ring since it was stolen during her junior year.

But on Friday, it was returned to her by a stranger who tracked her down on Facebook.

Angie Foster of Benton says she found the ring years ago at a roller skating rink. She had held onto it and at one point called the high school to figure out who had the initials MMB that were engraved on the inside of the band. The school had said that Bilodeau fit the description

Even after she learned Bilodeau’s name, it took years for Foster to find her. It wasn’t until Foster looked for her on Facebook that the search paid off.
