The Smith’s could not believe that Marcus got in touch with them.

Sheryl Smith said,

I am so thankful that he is honest and loyal to contact our church. You don’t find people like that. I told him, you know this was all God that God used him to find that ring. I feel God is real, he does answer prayers
