ring Lost On Anna Maria Island, Recovered BY SRARC

Corie, Rob and family from Arkansas were down on Anna Maria Island for spring break. They headed out to the beach in front of their condo at about 3 pm to enjoy the sun and surf. Corie took off her three wedding rings to put on some suntan lotion then promptly forgot about them. At some point later she remembered them and went looking for them. She couldn’t remember exactly when she had removed them or for sure where she had set them down. The whole family looked and looked but could not find them. The most important ring had a beautiful solitary diamond which had been in Corie’s grandmothers wedding ring so it was an irreplaceable heirloom. Rob decided to look for metal detectors on the internet and soon found SRARC ring finders. He contacted Joe Szemer who contacted Mike Miller and a hunt was scheduled. Once Mike arrived it was just a matter of minutes until he had the rings back on Corie’s finger. Rob said he had timed our response and from the time he texted Joe until the time we returned the rings it was just under one hour. He said they were sure they would never see the rings again but SRARC saved the day. Mike is the lucky one as he got hugs around and lots of smiles and cheers.

Ring Lost On Honeymoon Island, Recovered By SRARC

Evan was tossing the football while standing in waist-deep water at Honeymoon Island Beach. He went to twist his wedding band between his fingers, which he has a habit of doing, and discovered the band was not there! Evan did his best to find the ring, but his efforts fell flat. A couple of weeks later, Evan learned about SRARC and the Ringfinders. He contacted club president Howard Metts, and a hunt was set up. Evan watched as Howard, Dimitur Alipiev and Ed Osmar gridded the area with their detectors while getting pounded by the high tide and big waves. The first attempt was not successful, so Howard scheduled a second hunt after the surf calmed down and the tide was low. Once again Evan was there for moral support. This time Howard was joined by Mike Shuler. The two worked carefully around the big rocks that covered the area and after a little over an hour, Mike had the ring in his scoop! Evan was ecstatic to have his sentimental ring back, and immediately contacted his wife to share the good news!

Rob Clark, Bill Gallant, and Howard Metts were in the surf 2 hours latter conducting a hunt. Howard got a signal in ten minutes and could not get the item due to the waves, his machine stopped working so Rob and Bill took turns searching.

Ring Lost In Bradenton, Recovered By SRARC

Carl was washing the dog in his driveway in Bradenton. As he scrubbed, his hand flew up and his ring went flying out into the yard. This was his step fathers wedding ring given to him by Carl’s mother. It had been handed down to Carl after his mother had passed. Carl was very close to his step father who came into the family with a very interesting past. The family was living in Germany during Hitler’s rise and Carl’s step father and one brother were able to escape to the USA but lost all other family members in Auschwitz. He joined the US armed forces and ended up in the 101 Airborne Division. He fought at the Battle of the Bulge and also the capture of Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest. Carl held this ring with great respect and was heartbroken over it’s loss. Carl goggled the internet and found SRARC ring finders and was shortly connected with Howard Mett’s. Howard called for a hunt and Mike Miller responded. Mike met Carl at the site and Carl described where he thought the ring had landed. After going over the area several times with no luck we were loosing hope. Mike started checking the flower beds that were close to the area but nothing popped out. They started ripping the shrubs out so more of the ground could be covered and as the last of the bushes came Mike got a good hit. Carl was overjoyed as Mike help the ring up. Needless to say, Carl was grinning from ear to ear. SRARC is proud to return something so important to Carl but also to help keep the memory alive of one of our brave military veterans.

Jordan and Lindsay were visiting Clearwater Beach while on their vacation from Kansas City. Before running into the surf, Jordan removed his platinum wedding band and carefully folded it into his shirt. When it was time to leave Jordan gathered his belongings and headed off the beach. It wasn’t long before he realized his ring was missing, and hours of digging through the sand where his cabana had been proved fruitless. Randy Cooper (Jordan’s father in-law)found the SRARC website and shared it with Jordan and Lindsay, who quickly contacted Joe Szemer. Joe put out the call to the Ringfinders, and Mike Shuler and Bill Gallant met with Jordan at the site about an hour later. Jordan had wisely outlined the area of the loss in the sand, and in less than five minutes, an emotional Jordan was wearing his ring again!

On the last day of their vacation, Joe was playing football with his son when the ring flew off his finger and into the Gulf. The ring had an inlay of meteorite and was very special to him. A frantic search of the internet led Joe to Ringfinders. It was nearly dark, so a search was arranged for the following morning. Joe and his family had already departed for their home in New Jersey, but Mike Shuler, Bill Gallant, and Ed Osmar responded to the site and within 10 minutes, Mike had the ring in his scoop. Joe could hardly believe it when he got the call that his ring was recovered, and was thrilled that it would soon be shipped home!

Lost Ring Bradenton Beach, Recovered By SRARC

Pat and whole family came down from Nova Scotia to Bradenton Beach for a short semi annual family reunion. They were all out on the beach enjoying the warm weather and they started throwing a football around. Pat was out in waist deep water and all of a sudden he noticed his wedding ring was missing. He had no idea when the ring had slipped off, but the area he had played in was fairly small. Later he was talking with his wife, a tax account who had missed the trip due to a very busy tax season, and she found us on a google search. She gave him the number and soon SRARC made an appointment to meet. Mike Miller met Pat the next morning and in about 10 minutes he had his wedding ring back on his finger.
