While I was completing my student teaching assignment at Ridgecrest High School (now Paragould High School in Paragould, Arkansas) with the late Dr. Jay Springman, one morning I was preparing to do a stage makeup demonstration at an elementary campus. Before going to the other campus, I removed my class ring and a sapphire ring. I swore I put them in my jeans, but the rings were lost. I took them off in the drama dressing room off our classroom, and they may have been left on the sink in there. However, I was never able to find them. They were lost in the spring of 1996 while I was on assignment from Arkansas State University in Jonesboro. My ring was purchased for me by my late grandmother, and I would love to have it back.
