Ring Lost On Lido Key, Recovered By SRARC

Gabriel and his wife were down from Virgina visiting his close friend Caleb and his family. They all packed up and went to Lido Beach for a fun day in the sun and surf. Gabriel was out in about knee-deep water tossing a football back and forth with Caleb. As Gabriel reached to catch the ball it hit his hand and off shot his wedding ring. They all looked for the ring but had no luck. Caleb remembered that there was a group that would search for lost rings and soon found SRARC ring finders with a google search. Caleb called Joe Szemer and Joe called Mike Miller who scheduled a meet with them at the beach. After searching for about 20 minutes Mike came up with the ring and handed it to an overjoyed Gabriel. The whole group came down to the water and we all did a happy dance. SRARC is happy that Gabriel can now return to Virginia with a good memory of his visit to Florida.

Double Necklace with Pendants misplaced on Longboat Key Beach, Recovered By SRARC

Graham was visiting Longboat Key from the University of Kentucky for spring break when he lost two necklaces with pendants. He was out on the beach with his friends, and he put the two necklaces in a beach bag so he would not lose them. After a day in the sun the group picked up their things and headed back to their condo. Graham noticed right away that his necklaces were missing. He bought a metal detector and searched the area that they had been on at the beach but had no luck. He finally called his mom and gave her the sad news. Later that evening she found SRARC Ring Finders and gave him the contact information. Graham contacted Robert Velarde and Robert passed the info onto Mike Miller. Mike set up a meeting up with Graham and they met at the site. After searching for about 10 minutes Mike found both necklaces. They had fallen out of the beach bag and into the hole that their beach umbrella had been setting in. Graham was overjoyed to have them returned and was happy for a happy ending to spring break.

Ring Lost On Passage Key, Recovered By SRARC

April and her husband were out anchored at Passage Key (AKA Nudie Beach) for an afternoon of sun and fun. April was putting on suntan lotion and pulled on her ring to remove it. It slipped right out of her hand, bounced on the edge of the boat and disappeared into the water. They jumped into about waist deep water and searched but it had slipped under the sand. That evening they found SRARC and texted Joe Szemer. Arrangements were made to have April take Joe and Mike Miller out to the island on her boat. The next day they went out to the island and April explained where she thought she had lost the ring. Joe and Mike searched the area and after several more guesses of where to hunt April figured out how to get GPS information from the boat and we settled into a pretty small area to hunt. About 30 minutes later Mike got that sweet gold tone and out came the ring. April was so excited when Mike asked her to look into his scoop and there it was. After a bunch of hugs and happy screams we returned to the boat and headed home. So much fun for us to see the happiness on her face and to see her celebrate with her friend..

Ring Lost On Holmes Beach, Recovered By SRARC

Tiffany & Michael were down to Anna Maria Island from Connecticut for some fun and sun. They set up their area on Holmes Beach and Tiffany remembered she was wearing a very special ring so decided to protect it by tying it to one of the strings on her string bikini. During the day they ran around in the sand and tossed a football back and forth before going into the water to cool down. After returning to their area after cooling off, Tiffany noticed that her ring was no longer on her bikini. The area they had been in throughout the day was so large that it was impossible to search. They mentioned to a gentleman on beach named Bill what had happened. Bill suggested that they call SRARC ring finders. Joe Szemer got the call and contacted Mike Miller to see if he could respond quickly as the couple was going to leave in a short while. Mike headed down to the beach immediately and arrived just as they were leaving. Michael took Mike out to show him the area they thought he should hunt and then they left to return to Tampa. As Mike setup to begin the hunt, Bill came over and said he had been watching them the whole time they were there and that he should hunt in a completely different area than Michael had laid out. Since the area where the ring might have been lost (about the size of a football field) Mike went with what Bill suggested was the area they were most active in. After choosing to do the upper area first and having no luck Mike moved back to the middle and began the search of the lower area. After two sweeps the sweet sound of gold popped into Mike’s ears and sure enough there it was. Since Michael and Tiffany were already headed for return to Connecticut Mike will be returning the ring via USPS and is sure Tiffany will have a great big smile on her face when she opens the package. Thank you so much to Bill for putting Mike on the right track to finding the ring, without your help Mike would have never found the ring.

Ring Lost In Nokomis, Recovered BY SRARC

Bobby with Wife Tiffany and Sons Gage and Grayson came down to Nokomis beach from Tennessee for a couple of weeks of vacation. As they were standing on the shore right next to where the surf was washing up onto their feet Bobby realized his wedding ring was a little loose and want to secure it up where their beach camp was. He tried pulling it off but just couldn’t seem to get it to budge. He asked Gage to help him by pulling on it and then off it came and fell into the surf and disappeared immediately. They all searched for about half an hour but did not find it. They returned to where they were staying and then Bobby thought to Google “lost ring Nokomis” and up popped SRARC Ring Finders. Bobby called Joe Szemer and Joe contacted Mike Miller the next morning. Mike contacted Bobby and made arrangements to meet the family that afternoon. Bobby provide an idea of where it had been lost and when Mike arrived early he went ahead and started to hunt the general area. In about 5 minutes up came the ring. Mike waited for the family to arrive and when Bobby stepped up and offered his hand to Mike for coming to help, Mike slipped the ring into his hand. He was so surprised that he looked at his wife and said “he already found it”. The whole family had nothing but Big Smiles after that. It is always a pleasure to return an item with such a large personal value to the owner. Another vacation tragedy averted and turned into a great memory.
