Published: June 19, 2005
Marjorie Haven remembers how it felt when her class ring was stolen years ago.
That’s why she made it her mission to find the rightful owner of the 1962 Flint Central High School ring recently discovered in her daughter’s Flint home.
So it was that Christine Strickland was reunited with her ring Saturday after it was found by Lucy and Marvin Copenhaver, who found it in a ventilation register when renovating the kitchen, Haven said.

From a neighbor, she learned the home once was owned by Wayne Whipple. She learned Wayne died in 1995 and among survivors was Strickland, his daughter.
Haven found Strickland in the phone book.
“She was amazed,” Haven said.
