After 67 years, it is still nice to know that you can still surprise someone you love.

Diane Hawkins’s mother was devastated after she lost her wedding rings at the nursing home where she lives with her husband. After a fall that left her hands swollen, she was forced to remove the rings. Though she swore she placed them safely in a jewelry box, the rings somehow went missing soon after.

But the mishap gave Diane and her dad the perfect opportunity to give her the ultimate Christmas surprise.
