00:00My daddy bought the spring for my mom after she fell into the Arkansas River off of our houseboat.
00:08The Delta Queen was docking at the Island Harbor Marina in Pine Bluff, Arkansas,
00:15and we were docking our houseboat, and Mama fell in, and she couldn't swim,
00:22and the undercurrent pulled her under, and she didn't come back up.
00:27And so we were all panicking, and we thought she was drowning.
00:33And finally, Daddy and my brothers jumped in, and I jumped in, and we found her,
00:39and we pulled her back up, and Daddy was so upset, he sold the houseboat the next day
00:45and bought this ring for my mother.
00:48Or a carat 80. So the ring has a total carat weight above five carats.
00:54A retail value today for this ring is in the range of $60,000 to $70,000.
