Gavin was walking along Potters Boulevard, Brooklyn Boulevard, Richland Boulevard, Manatuck Boulevard, Mohawk Boulevard, Penataquit Boulevard and Lombardy Boulevard.

"I know it's a long shot," she said. "I am so heartbroken. My husband gave that to me as a gift because my dad had passed away back when I was a teenager. I feel so lost without it. For me to get a new one it would cost me about $350 which I don't have."
