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

Bobby and his new bride were spending their final day on the beach in Madeira Beach with Bobby’s parents. Bobby decided to go for a swim and took his wedding ring off and put it on his towel before going into the ocean. Once Bobby got back to his trowel he picked it up and shook it off to dry off and just then remembered his ring was on the Towel. The family frantically searched the sand with their hands to no avail. Bobby’s mom, Louise searched the internet for a metal detector when she came across the SRARC web page. Louise gave Stan Flack a call and arrangements were made to meet within the next 30 minutes. Upon arrival, Stan was given a quick download on the tragic events and went to work. After a few passes, Stan got a clear signal and sure enough, there was Bobby’s ring. All were very relieved since Bobby had only had the ring a few months and was heading out in the morning back to New Jersey. One happy guy. Noo ne wants to start out in the dog house. Smiles and hugs around!

Brand New Wedding Ring Lost, Found, and Returned on Madeira Beach, Florida

Stan and Linda Flack got a call from a friend whose son Kyle lost his wedding ring off their dock last Sunday. They had just attended his wedding in February so you can imagine how upset he was. One attempt was done but it was windy, cold and too deep. Second trip had a little less wind and lower tide, bingo. Return number 52 for Stan and it was a tough one. Had to take 2 cracks at this one which landed in what felt like chocolate pudding. In the end, it found its way into his scoop.
Way to stay at it Stan…Dock hunts are extremely tough!

Platinum Wedding Ring Lost, Found, and Returned on Madeira Beach, Florida

Erik and his family were enjoying a game of volleyball on Madeira Beach when his wife felt her Platinum 3 ring set slip off her finger. They gathered to whole family around the area and started searching for the rings. One of the group happened to see something shining which was the post and diamond of the engagement ring. After this they started searching with small sifters and found a second ring. They had no luck finding the third. Erik asked someone to google metal detectors and one of the members found a detector APP and downloaded that and hunted with his phone. Then they searched for metal detectors that they could buy. In that search they came across theringfinders.com and called SRARC, talked to Mike Miller then called Tom Jones. Tom agreed to meet them at the beach after dinner. He and Joe Szemer headed out and met up with Erik and his son Jackson. Erik led them to the volleyball court and drew a square in the sand where the first two rings were found and hopefully the third would be found. Tom and Joe started hunting and within minutes the ring was in Tom’s scoop and returned to Erik. Jackson wanted to go back to the condo and trick his mother into thinking that the ring was not found. “Not Recommended”.

Heirloom Engagement Ring Lost, Found, and Returned at Pass-A-Grille Beach, Florida

John, Christine and their family were visiting from Stone Mountain, Georgia. Sunday afternoon they were enjoying a day on the beach, Christine was in the water throwing a football when she felt her ring come off. She screamed out that she had lost her ring. Her daughter saw the ring fly through the air and into the water.
The ring she had just lost was a family heirloom that John had given here upon their engagement. The whole family and and friends started searching frantically for the ring but to no avail. John decided to search for professional help and his google search led him to theringfinders.com website and eventually to SRARC. He called Tom Jones and asked for help. Tom called Joe Szemer and immediately headed out to the beach. Upon arrival they met up with John, Tom headed to the beach with a detector and Joe stared the arduous task of finding a parking spot.
Tom went into the water with John and Christine to the location that they felt the ring should be. Tom told Christine to stand in that spot and not move so he could use her as a reference point. He circled around her and John and gridded the area first east and west then north and south. After 30 minutes Joe finally enters the water to start hunting as he is searching his way out toward Christine, Tom noticed Christine heading to the beach with her head down and her face in her hands. As she walked away Joe moved into the spot she was standing and got a target. After a couple of scoops he looked up at John and asked “What does the ring look like?” It was in his scoop. A scream was let out and everyone came running out into the water.

Two Rings Found and Returned at Weekii Watchee Springs

Caroline and her sister Katy along with several other cousins all gathered at Katy’s house for the holidays. On Monday January 3rd they decided it would be fun to go up to Weekii Watchee Springs state park and see the mermaids perform. After the show they spent some additional time walking around the park and soon it was getting so warm they decided to go for a swim in the spring. Caroline went into the changing room and changed into her swimming suit. She covered herself with sun screen and in the process removed her rings and put them into her short’s pocket and then put them on over her swim suit. After looking around a little more they headed over to the beach and found a picnic table to store their things on. Caroline removed her shorts and laid them on the table then headed off to the water. After swimming for a while they returned to the table and Caroline found her shorts with the keys fallen out of the pocket but thought nothing of it. They finished their day and headed home. After returning home she discovered both of her rings were missing. She and her sister rushed back to the park and searched in the sand under the table but could not find anything. One of Caroline’s cousins remembered hearing about The Ring Finders and suggested she try finding someone to help. She found the SRARC Ring Finders Service and contacted Mike Miller. Mike put out a request to the team and they all met at the site the next day. As the team entered the park (Paul Hill, Ed Osmar, Rick Magyar, Mike Shuler and Mike), the gate attendant mentioned that they had just found a ring. We waited until Caroline arrived and they had her describe her lost engagement ring and sure enough it was hers. We all congratulated her and began to step away when she mentioned that the engagement ring was the only one that was important so don’t worry about the other ring she had lost. We said “No Way” we came all this way to hunt so let’s go see if we can find it. We discovered that the engagement ring was found nowhere near where she thought she had lost it and there was no sandy area in that location. We decided to split up with Caroline and Paul heading to the location that the engagement ring had been found and the rest of us, with Katy as our guide, headed to the beach area by the picnic table. After searching the sand around the picnic table for a short time Mike got a call from Paul and he informed us that Caroline had found the second ring. The boat Captain who found the engagement ring saw them looking and he showed them exactly where he had found it lodged between two dock planks. Caroline looked off to the side in the dirt and spotted the other ring right away. We think she reached into her pocket for something and the rings popped out as she pulled out maybe her keys. Whatever, we are very happy she has her rings again and that we were able to give her moral support until they were returned to her fingers again.
When we left the park we all had great big smiles on our faces!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope Ring Lost, Found, and Returned on Venice Beach, Florida

The 100th Return for Jay and Karen Ganz

While vacationing with my daughter in FL, I took my ring off to put sunscreen on. I got up to attend to my three year-old and forgot my ring was on my lap. I didn’t realize the ring fell into the sand until an hour later when we were packing the car to leave. My father and I went back and combed the beach with our hands and feet for over an hour with no luck. That night I was sick to my stomach…the ring wasn’t a material possession, it was a ring I made for myself in 2014 when my daughter and I moved back to NJ from WA state, a new 2-person duo. When faced with being a single mom I told myself, “You got this” and I traded in some jewelry I no longer used to have a hope ring made. Two years later the ring was now gone. The next morning, I texted the local Ring Finders chapter and a friendly voice called me back saying her name was Karen and her husband Jay and she would love to help. I asked about the fee and she said there’s no charge but I could donate to their chapter if I wanted. They changed their existing plans and met me at Venice Beach not much later. In less than 5 minutes Karen found my ring. The next day was Thanksgiving and I couldn’t help but be thankful for my path crossing with Karen and Jay…it wasn’t the ring being returned that I was as grateful for, as it was meeting such genuinely giving people and knowing that selfless people still exist in the world. I thank them for finding my ring, but more importantly Karen and Jay showing me true kindness.

Congratulations Jay and Karen on 100 rings returned over your detecting careers. That is an AWESOME accomplishment!!!!!!!!!

Wedding Ring Lost, Found, and Returned on Sand Key, Florida

Dale was at the beach fishing on the evening after Thanksgiving. He had baited several of the hooks on his poles and placed them spaced out along the beach. He returned to his tackle box and grabbed his hand rag to wipe the bait slime from his hands. Soon he had a nibble which cleaned the bait off one of his hooks. He rebaited the hook and wiped off his hands again and so it went through the night.

A few hours later Dale decided to head for home. He picked up all his poles and gear, loaded it into his vehicle and jumped into the front seat. He then noticed his wedding ring was missing. Since it was dark he decided to return in the morning to look for it. He came back with a sand sifter and shovel and sifted through all the sand he thought the ring might be hidden in. After an hour or so he gave up. When he returned home without his ring his wife was not a happy camper!!!. She found SRARC Ring Finders on Facebook and sent Paul Hill a message. Paul responded and a short time later Dale called Mike Miller. Mike contacted Mike Shuler who thought he would be able to fit a hunt into his schedule. He called Dale to try and schedule a time to meet but they were not able to connect except the next morning. Dale’s wife was very concerned that it would be too late by then so he called Mike Miller back to see if he could help out.

Mike agreed to go out right away and headed for Clearwater. About an hour later Dale, Mike, and Jeffery Miller met at the location where the ring had been lost. After searching the general area the Dale laid out for about 30 minutes the ring was recovered.

SRARC is always happy to bring smiles to faces of those who have lost something valuable to them and also to help keep peace in the family.

Wedding Ring Lost at Beach Ceremony, Found and Returned Just in Time on Pass A Grille Beach

Scott and Tracy planned a beautiful wedding at sunset on Pass A Grille beach. Everything was setup and almost ready to go when Scott was walking across the boardwalk to the beach. As he was walking across the sand he felt strange and thought he heard something hit the sand. He stopped and checked everything he had been carrying and discovered he no longer had the wedding ring. Everyone rushed over to look but had no luck finding the ring. The wedding planner quickly informed them he knew of a group that could help. He contacted Stan Flack of SRARC Ring Finders who passed him on to Mike Miller. Mike said he could come right over but it was getting late and the sun would soon be down so they decided to go on with the ceremony without the ring.

By the time Mike got there the ceremony was over but the bride and groom were still at the alter. Mike went right to work and within 5 minutes he found the ring. Everyone was relieved and the ring was rushed over to the couple and it was just in time for Tracy to slip the wedding ring onto Scotts finger.

SRARC is so happy to have been able to recover and return this ring. We wish the happy couple all the best in their future.

Lost Wedding Ring Found and Returned on Madeira Beach

Mike, Rachel, and children were down from Indiana for fall break. After spending the morning swimming and relaxing in the sun, Mike noticed his children tossing a football on the Beach. He joined them and moved out into about chest deep water. They threw the ball for a few minutes and on the final toss Mike saw his wedding ring fly off and disappear into the waters of the gulf. The whole family looked for several hours but could not find it.

Mike googled for a place to rent a metal detector and found the SRARC Ring Finders Service. He contacted us and we set up a hunt for the next day. Jim Adams, Joe Montione, Mark Sillence, Bill Gallant, Jeffery Miller, and Mike Miller joined in the hunt and within 15 minutes Bill said I think I found it. Sure enough Mike rushed over and confirmed it was the missing ring. Rachel, Mike’s wife, also came rushing out in disbelief and gave Bill a great big hug. Mike told me later she had no faith that we would find the ring and had told him it was a 1 in 1 million chance.

The SRARC ring finders team is happy to be the ones to make a I in 1 million opportunity come true for Mike and Rachel.

Wedding Ring Lost then Found and Returned at Tierra Verde Fishing Spot

Nick came down from Ocala with his Dad, Brother, and Father-in-law to fish in honor of his recently lost Aunt whom had fished many times with his father in this very spot over the last thirty years. After fishing for a short time, Nick hooked a nice Red fish and while unhooking it got stabbed with a fin. As he jerked his hand away, off flew his wedding ring. He has only been married for 5 months and he could not imagine how he was going to explain not having a wedding ring to his new wife. They had been fishing in about waist deep water and had the foresight to mark the spot where the ring came off with a stick stuck into the grassy bottom. They all searched for about an hour before realizing that they were not going to find it.

Nick got out of the water and did a search on his smart phone for lost wedding rings in St Petersburg. SRARC Ring Finders Recovery Service popped up right away and he called the numbers listed and Mike Miller soon responded. Mike put out a quick request to the team members and headed for Nick’s location. Mike and Jeffery Miller both arrived about the same time and began the search. It only took a few minutes for Mike to locate and recover the ring. It was within three feet of where the stick had been pushed into the bottom.

Nick was extremely happy to get his ring back and relieved that he was not going to have to explain a lost wedding ring to his wife. SRARC wishes them both many happy years together.
