A Couple from Ohio came to Cookeville to attend a funeral at the Whitson Funeral Home.

After leaving their room at Super 8 Motel on S. Walnut Avenue and arriving at Whitson Funeral Home. The couple said they became aware that the rings had been forgotten and rushed back to the Motel.

When they arrived a house keeper was cleaning the room when another house keeper walked in to help with the inquiry about the rings. The house keepers said, it was a Motel policy to unlock room doors and leave opened after guests check out, to let the room air out and they had been elsewhere cleaning for 20 minutes or so before returning to clean the room.

The two house keepers advised that neither had seen anyone walking around in the area, however another witness claimed to have seen two males there earlier.

The Ohio couple provided photos of the rings for further investigation.
