A homeless Kansas City man found a $4,000 diamond ring and returned it to the woman who lost it. The ring fell by accident into the donation cup of Billy Ray Harris. He returned it to Sarah Darling and her husband Bill Krejci. "My grandfather was a reverend. He raised me from the time I was 6 months old, and thank the good lord. It's a blessing, but I do still have some character," Harris said. An online campaign to donate money to Harris for the gesture has raised $68,000 as of Friday morning. "The idea was maybe to come up with a couple hundred dollars, something nice for him," Krejci said. "But now we're talking about an amount that could really make a difference."
