Sentimental Ring Lost, Found and Returned on North Redington Beach

Laura and her family were down from Crystal River to enjoy some free time together and frolic in the warm gulf waters. She was out in the water about knee deep and getting ready to sit on her float. As she leaned back to sit, the float slipped away and as she threw her arms back to catch herself She felt her special Diamond ring fly off of her finger.

The whole family searched frantically but could not find the ring. One of the family members, Kathlyn, did a google search and soon found SRARC on The Ring Finders site. She called Mike Miller and they set an appointment for the next morning at 7:00 am. Mike, Stan Flack, Mark Sillence, Mike Shuler, and Ed Osmar showed up and went right to work in the area defined by Laura. After about 30 minutes Mike Shuler indicated he had the ring. As Mike walked up the beach toward Laura holding the ring out to her she burst out into tears of joy.

We were all excited for Laura as was her whole family. It was our pleasure to see the joyful smiles that broke out when the ring was returned. Nice work Mike!!!!!! This is Mike’s first return with the SRARC team and I think he was just as happy as Laura. Congratulations Mike.

Diamond Pendant Found and Returned in Dunedin, Florida

Sandy was working in her garden when a fly started annoying her. She swatted at the fly and accidently hooked into her 3 diamond pendant and sent it flying into the flower garden somewhere. She rented a metal detector and had no luck finding her pendant. She then contacted SRARC and Howard Metts went to the home to search for the pendant. Howard started hunting with his detector but soon realized that he would have to use a pinpointer to hunt through the flower bushes. After 20 minutes or so he came up with the pendant which has 3 heart shaped diamonds each representing one of her three children. Sandy was so excited to get the pendant back, especially since her family will be moving out of the home in the near future and she did want to leave her precious pendant behind.

Wedding Ring Lost, Found and Returned at Clearwater Beach, Florida

Marco and his wife were in town from Miami vacationing in St. Petersburg when they decided to spend the day at Clearwater Beach.  Marco was doing some digging in the sand and decided that it would be best to give his wife his wedding ring for safe keeping.  She put the ring in their beach bag and they went about enjoying the beach until a storm swept in rapidly and they were forced to leave the beach in a hurry.  When they got to the car, they discovered Marco’s ring was missing.  Fortunately for Marco, the valet at the Hyatt is very aware of the SRARC’s ring finder team and told Marco’s to call on them.  Marco called Tom jones who passed on to team member Stan Flack to see if we could locate the ring.  By now it was dark so with Marco and his wife leaving the next day, Stan suggested a very early morning hunt and the two met on Clearwater beach at 6 a.m.  Unfortunately the place marker Marco had left of where they had been was now gone, but a few clues were still there including Marco’s eye for detail on a few beach trash items he remembered seeing.  A little daylight, a little deducing on a path of travel, and a dash of luck and Stan had the ring in his scoop in about 20 minutes.  A stunned Marco was very happy to have his ring back with smiles and high fives all the way around.

Special Ring Lost at Clearwater Beach then Found and Returned

Elizabeth, her husband Jonas and son Elias are on holiday from Helsingborg Sweden and ready to enjoy all that Florida has to offer.  The water was warm and welcoming as Elizabeth swished her hands in the clear blue Gulf of Mexico.  As she lifted her hands up she realized that the ring her husband had gotten in Thailand and given to her 16 years ago was gone.  Heartbroken, they searched for hours with no luck.  That is when they went online and contacted Mike Miller.  Mike contacted Paul Hill who he knew was off today and available for a rapid response.  He made his way to Clearwater Beach and met up with Elizabeth.  Paul looked at his watch, 3:29, picked his north to south line based on some questions he asked and on tide information that he had be given by Mike on the drive over.  Thirty or so feet later he got a solid 12-27 signal, presenting his scoop to Elizabeth she reached in and retrieved her white gold and ruby ring then almost knocked Paul over with big hug.  Quick look at his watch…3:34.  The happy family headed back up to the beach ready to enjoy the rest of their 3 week vacation!
SRARC is very happy that we were able to help and wish them safe travels back home.

Wedding Ring Lost, Found and Returned on Clearwater Beach, Florida

Jason and his wife were visiting St, Petersburg from Walton, KY. While here they decided to take the family to Clearwater Beach for the day. Upon arriving at the beach they took some pictures then decided to go in the water. Jason walked out into the water about knee deep and at that time his wife asked him if he should take his ring off to make sure he didn’t   loose it. At that time he looked down and it was already gone. They went back to their umbrella and looked at the pictures they had just taken and sure enough it was on his finger right before he went in the water.

After looking for the ring for some time they reluctantly got in the car and headed back to St. Petersburg. Jason was broken hearted because he would never see his wedding band again. That afternoon he decided to search the internet to see if there was someone that could hunt for the ring. He found the ringfinders.com and contacted Tom Jones. Tom told Jason to meet him at Clearwater Beach at 6:30 that same evening.

Tom, Ed Osmar, and Dimitur Alipiev met the couple at the beach and started hunting. As the three were searching the water Ed noticed the couple standing in the water about 20 yards north of the area they had indicated the ring was lost. Ed thought, I bet that is where they really lost it. Moments after he reach the spot Ed called out “is it silver colored?” Jason and his wife ran over and she read the inscription inside the band and yelled out “Oh my God that is it”. After a round of hugs for all, the couple left the beach to enjoy the rest of their vacation that was destined to be a bad memory but now has a “great story” as Jason puts it. The link below is a news clip of the event.

Watch Lost and Found, Then Returned at One Tree Island Clearwater, Florida

Robert’s Watch was lost as he jumped from the aft of his boat and caught it on the edge. He and a boating buddy had been enjoying the day playing on the island when the boat began drifting away from the shore so he quickly jumped in to push it back in. The watch was a gift from his wife and very important to him. They tried snorkeling for it but after a few days decided to ask for help. They found SRARC on The Ring Finders and contacted Mike Miller. After an unsuccessful hunt Mike told them he would look for a good low tide day and schedule another hunt. For two weeks Robert and his wife scuba dived the area looking for the watch. Three weeks later a great low tide appeared and the SRARC team showed up for the hunt. Robert and His wife ferried all 8 of them out to the island. The team, Jerry and Debbie Schneider, Paul Hill, Howard Metts, Dimitur Alipiev, Mark Sillence, Joe Montione, and Mike went to work. About 45 minutes later Jerry and Debbie shouted “we found it”. We all joined in and called Robert over so we could return his watch. As you can see there were lots of smiles. Congratulations Jerry and Debbie on a great recovery.

Clearwater Beach Lost Wedding Ring Set Found and Returned

Javan and his wife were spending some time at Clearwater Beach after their wedding that day. They had played in the hotel pool for a while then got out and walked to the sandy beach and sat down on the lounge chairs to warm up. Javan’s new wife had her wedding ring set in her hand and when they decided to get up and go into the gulf she slide them back onto her finger.

They walked a few steps into the water and it felt so good they sat down, leaned back and let the water wash over them. Later they went deeper into the gulf and just enjoyed each other and the warm water. Later as they emerged from the water they noticed the wedding set was missing. They looked everywhere but it was not to be found.

The next day Javan found SRARC through The Ring Finders site and we organized a hunt for that evening. Stan Flack, Bill Gallant, Ed Osmar, Celeste Roles, and Mike Miller showed up and met Javan at 6:30 pm. Javan explained what had happened and where they had been and we went to work searching the water and the sand. After a couple hours we all were losing hope when Bill Gallant walks over to Javan and asks Javan to look into his scoop and there it was. Javan jumped for joy and we all joined in. We didn’t get to see the look on Javan’s wife’s face when he put the ring on her finger for the second time in two days but I bet she was all smiles.

We wish these two the best for their future and are happy we could help them. Bill you did a great service for this couple and we congratulate you on your success in finding the ring.

Gold and Diamond Engagement Ring Lost, Recovered, and Returned at Fred Howard Beach in Tarpon Springs

Brittany was at Fred Howard Park in Tarpon Springs enjoying the day with family. She put her engagement ring on her bag so she could put sunscreen on her daughter. She looked up to see her young daughter running towards the water. When it was time to leave she forgot that the ring was on the bag. Packed up and headed home. Realizing later that the ring was gone she was devistated. A friend of hers heard about it and contacted his friend and SRARC member Mark Prue. Mark couldn’t get away so he contacted another member Stan Flack. Stan and his wife Linda headed up to the beach to search. After an hour drive it only took 10 minutes for Stan to recover and reunite it with Brittney.
SRARC wishes her and her future husband all the best and are happy that we could make the journey a little bit smoother!
Thanks to the Flacks for being so willing to share of your time and talents.

Wedding Ring Lost at Clearwater Beach (found) by SRARC Ring Finders

Mike was down from Virginia visiting Clearwater Beach with his wife and 3 children for spring break. Yesterday afternoon he stepped out onto the beach and into the water. When he got about knee deep he thought it might be a good idea to remove his wedding ring and store it in his pocket for safe keeping. As he was pulling it off of his finger it slipped from his grip and fell into the water. After frantically searching on his hands and knees for a while it became clear that he would not find it. He returned to his room and worried about it for several hours before searching the internet for help. When he did, the Ring Finders popped right up and he found the SRARC Ring Finders group. He called that evening and we set up a meet time in front of the Hotel on Clearwater Beach. At 8:00 am the next morning, Mike Miller, Mark Sillence, Wayne Cree, Jerry Schneider, and Rick Magyar showed up for the recovery. After listening to Mike’s story and getting clear on the area the wedding ring was lost we started the search. In about 15 minutes Rick gave the thumbs up and brought Mike is ring. We got lots of smiles and hugs from him as he celebrated the return of his ring. It was a real pleasure for us to meet Mike and be able to make his day. Thanks to all who participated.

Wedding Ring Lost on Madeira Beach, Florida Found by SRARC

Jon, down from Michigan with his extended family for a warm spring break at Madeira Beach, headed out to the beach for a little game of catch. He was close to the waters edge and lunged to catch a pass and “BOOM” his wedding ring flew off and into the water. The whole family (I think he said there were 8 of them) searched and searched but could not find it. He then got the idea to rent a mental detector. When he told the shop owner about the problem, the owner sent him to Ring Finders. He contacted SRARC and we soon scheduled a hunt for the next morning at 7:00 am. Jim and Gerri Adams, Paul Hill and Mike Miller showed up and Jon was there waiting for them on the dark and foggy beach in front of his condo. He gave us the story and defined the hunt area for us and we went to work. Ten minutes later, Paul Hill got a good hit and in a few digs up came the ring. Jon was overjoyed and we were soon introduced to a few of his family members. There were plenty of smiles to go around with Jon and family and now their vacation can continue on a good note. The SRARC group wishes them all the best.

Paul Hill, Master Hunter three years in a row did it again. Congratulations Paul and thanks Jim, Gerri and Mike for helping out.
