Lido Key Beach Lost Ring Recovered By SRARC

Samantha and Peter went to Lido Key beach to enjoy the sunset and some evening fun after work. There were a lot of big swells so they decided to go play in the wat. As the bounced up and down with each new swell, Peter felt his wedding ring slipping from his finger. He looked down just in time to see it glide to the bottom and disappear in the sand. They stayed and looked until it was to dark to see but had no luck. Later that evening Samantha found SRARC on the Ring Finders site and contacted us. She also returned the next day to search with snorkel gear but still could not find the ring. Her last hope was SRARC, After setting up a time to meet Mike Miller and Paul Hill showed up and Peter took them to the location. After hunting for about 15 minutes Paul indicated he had the ring. We both walked in toward the shore and we could see a big smile form on Peters face. When we reach him, Paull held out his scoop and Peter searched for his ring. He pulled it out of the scoop and declared “This is not my ring”. WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!! Paul Hill just scored an 18 K gold ring. So, back to work we went. After another 15 minutes we began to expand the search and shortly thereafter Paul claimed he had really found it this time. As we walked back to shore again, Peter was not sure what to expect. This time when he looked in the scoop he shouted “that’s my ring thank you, oh thank you”. Peter and Samantha have only been since December, so they were both overjoyed to have the ring back on Peter’s finger and we at SRARC were overjoyed to have been able to recover it for them.

Lost Ring In Brooksville Found By SRARC

Upon notification of Howard Mets of a missing diamond ring in Brooksville, I called Mrs. Emily Harris and arraigned a time to meet her: Sunday March 24th at 2pm at her home.

SRARC member Bill Frosch and I arrived at her house a few minutes before 2pm and Mrs. Harris showed us where she had been washing her car in the side yard of her house.

She advised us that apparently her gold & diamond ring slipped off her finger into the soapy bucket of water, and she later threw the bucket of soapy water into the brush

near the property line between her house and the empty lot next door. Bill and I geared up and began checking the area. Within 10 minutes of detecting the area of the property line

I picked up a very strong surface signal, and using my pin pointer, located Mrs. Harris’ ring under the leaves, in the grass.

Mrs Harris was ecstatic over us finding the ring and was beaming ear to ear.

Ed and Christi brought the family down to Anna Maria Island from Saint Lewis to celebrate the successful surgery on their son for a brain tumor. It was a time to celebrate after a very tough year of medical procedures. On their first day they of course had to hit the beach. Ed was bouncing his daughter in the waves as they crashed on to the shore, when he felt his wedding ring slip off. He couldn’t believe his bad luck after such a hard year. The ring had never been off his finger since his wedding day and he searched franticly for hours. That evening he found SRARC Ring Finders and they scheduled a hunt for the following day. Since Mike, Nick, and Joe were already on the island the original hunters handed the hunt off to them. Ed had done a great job of identifying where the ring had come off and he led the team right to the site. In a few minutes Mike got the hit and up came the ring. Ed was overcome and was shaking with delight as the ring was returned to his finger. Our prayers are with Ed and Christi’s son for a speedy and full recovery from his surgery.
