Wedding Ring Lost In Sarasota And Recovered By SRARC

Steve and Leslie were out on the back canal cleaning dirt and leaves out of their boat. Leslie reached into the anchor storage vault and was flipping a hand full of leaves out into the water when she felt and saw her wedding ring fly off with the leaves and kerplunk into the water. She was very distraught and quickly went an put her snorkeling gear on to see if she could find it. She searched as long as she could but could just not find it. Later that evening she googled for help and discovered the SRARC ring finders group. After arrangements were made, Mike Shuler and Mike Miller arrived to do a search. The area was so small that they decide to only have one hunter go in. Mike Shuler hunted for a couple hours but had no luck and with the tide rising they decided to come back another day. About a week and a half later, at the next extra low tide, they returned and this time Mike Miller took a turn. In about ten minutes up came the ring. Mike and Mike had a great time returning the ring and enjoying the big smile on Leslie’s face. She graciously invited us into her home and provided us with a tour and coffee, and Bloody Mary’s. We had a great conversation and can only say we are so happy to have been able to return her ring.

Ring Lost On Siesta Key, Recovered By SRARC

Susan and Bill arrived on Siesta Key from Rhode Island for a weekend of family reunion to celebrate Bill’s Birthday. Their children, two siblings along with their children and grandchildren were due to arrive the next day for the beginning of the party. They headed out to the beach for some sun and relaxation before the big event commenced. Susan took her freshly cleaned and polished engagement ring off and set it on her chair to put suntan lotion on. They left the chairs to walk down the beach and when they returned, they quickly folded their chairs and towels and returned to their rental. About an hour later Susan realized she had forgotten about her ring. They returned to the beach and searched but it was not to be found. At some point she mentioned the lost ring to the rental homeowner and the owner found The Ring Finders site and sent it to Susan. Susan found SRARC on the site and contacted Howard Mett’s while she was standing in the spot where she thought they had been sitting. Howard contacted Mike who responded and after arriving at the site he found it right where she thought it would be. As the ring was returned, she looked up at him with tears of joy and a great big smile. SRARC hopes that she can now relax and enjoy the upcoming reunion and celebration.

Ring Lost On Anna Maria Island, Recovered By SRARC

Kathy and Steve were staying on Anna Maria Island for a week with their Daughter Katelyn and Son-in-law Jesse. On Wednesday afternoon they were all out at the beach enjoying the water and sun. As they tossed a football around while standing in waist deep water, Jesse felt his wedding ring slip off and watched it fall into the water. They all kept their wits about them. Katelyn was standing right next to Jesse when the ring came off, so she stayed right there, and the others searched all around her. They soon realized that they would most likely not find it. Kathy googled for help finding a lost ring and up popped the SARAC ring finders’ group. While Katelyn stood right where the ring had dropped, Steve went back to shore and retrieved a fishing pole holder. He returned to where Katelyn was standing and planted it into the sand so the location would not be lost. Mike responded to the callout and was soon on site. He hunted around the marker and kept expanding the search area. Finally, he decided to do a grid search covering about 40 ft each side of the marker. Starting in the deeper water and working in toward the shore. After about 45 minutes he was back to the area just shore side of the marker. As he approached the marker again, he stopped and asked Jesse why he felt that the marker was where he had been when the ring was lost. He said because his wife was standing where they had been, and she never moved until the marker was in place. Mike took one step after that and there it was about 3 feet from the marker. He couldn’t believe he had been over that area at least twice before and missed it. Jesse was very happy to see the ring come up and broke out into a great big smile. He said, “I think my wife will start talking to me again”, and when you look at the picture of her when she found out it was back on his finger, I think he is right. Now they have a great story and can enjoy the rest of their vacation.

Ring Lost On Cortez, FL Recovered By SRARC

Merry and Brian were visiting Anna Maria Island from Long Island for a couple of months. They decided to have lunch at the Star Fish Company and Restaurant in Cortez, Fl. After lunch they were sitting at the bar when an old friend arrived. Merry stood up and hugged her friend and as she patted her on the back her ring flew off and fell through the crack between the deck planks. This was not just any ring, it was Merry’s grandmothers wedding ring handed down to Merry’s mother and then to Merry her self just one month ago. Brian went under the deck which is over the water and searched but could not find it. A customer noticed what was going on and told Merry about SRARC ring finders. Merry contacted Joe Szemer who sent a callout. Mike Miller responded and in about 10 minutes the ring was back on Merry’s finger. The customers at the restaurant all cheered and Merry broke down in tears. We at SRARC get so much satisfaction when we get to return a special item like this. We are ever so happy to have recovered this heirloom for Merry.

Ring Lost On Anna Maria Island, Recovered By SRARC

Forrest, Alicia, and daughter Eliana along with Brother-in-law Derek and Annemarie were vacationing from Indiana and Chicago on Anna Maria Island. They spent the whole afternoon on the beach and playing in the gulf. Around 4:00 pm they packed up and headed to their rental unit. Shortly after arriving Forrest noticed his wedding ring was missing. They retraced their steps and search on the sand but did not find it. That evening Derek found the SRARC ring finders and made arrangements for a group to come out and search for the ring. Mike Shuler, Ed Osmar, Carl Boekemier, and Mike Miller met them a the beach. Since Forrest had know idea when or where the ring had come off a very large area of dry sand and water needed to be searched. They focused on the sand first and then moved into the water. After hunting for about 2 hours Mike Miller got the hit and up came the missing ring. Forrest was back at the rental so Derek gave him a call and he raced out to the beach. As we returned his ring he chocked up with joy and the whole group was nothing but big smiles. SRARC is happy to have made another vacation end as a happy one.

Ring Lost On Honeymoon Island, Recovered By SRARC

Daniella was enjoying the water at Honeymoon Island when she lost her footing and fell forward. She was heartbroken when she realized her wedding ring had come off in the fall. Daniella had an especially strong sentimental attachment to the ring because she had lost her husband of 38 years less than a year earlier. As her family was trying to help her to let the ring go, Daniella learned about Ringfinders. A hunt was scheduled and led by Howard Metts, with Ed Osmar, Bill Gallant, and Mike Shuler joining in the hunt. In less than 5 minutes, Mike had the ring in his scoop. The hugs and tears of joy continued as Daniella thanked the Ringfinders team. We’re very glad Daniella was reunited with this important reminder of her husband.

Ring Lost On Passage Key, Recovered By SRARC

Rachel and John were down from Ocala for a short weekend break on Anna Maria Island. They had their boat with them and headed out to Passage Key to catch some sun and water time. They pulled up on the North end of the key, anchored, and jumped out of the boat to hit the beach. Then they saw the sign that designated the whole island a preserve where you are not allowed onto the beach. They backed into the water and began tossing a football back and forth. They had become engaged just one year earlier and the ring had still not been sized correctly. Well just as you may have guessed, the ring flew off Rachel’s hand as the ball hit it. They frantically searched for several hours but to no avail. Their heads hung down they returned to their rental unit and spent a sad evening and restless night worrying about the loss. The next morning Rachel found SRARC on Google and contacted them. Mike Miller responded and set up a hunt for later that day. Mike met them and Rachel’s brother Kyle at their rental and they all headed out in the boat for the recovery mission. As they anchored the boat, Mike was looking around and much to his surprise discovered all the people around them were naked!!!!!!! He quickly jumped out of the boat thinking “I wonder what it is like to metal detect naked”, but quickly put his head down and went to work. As he worked Mike was thinking “Wow I wonder if they were throwing the football naked”. After a short time they made it clear that they were just as surprised the day before and had anchored as far away from the nudies as possible. Mike searched for about three hours and was getting close to calling it a day when he heard the sweet sound of platinum. When he dug the target, up came a beautiful 2 caret diamond ring. He turned to look at the boat where the others were listening to the Buck’s game and saw that Rachel was watching him. As Mike started walking toward the boat Rachel’s heart sunk for a moment thinking that he was done hunting, but then she yelled “did you find it” and Mike nodded his head yes. Mike has never seen two people get off a boat and into the water so fast. John and Rachel both raced toward him and he could see nothing but great big smiles on their faces. Mike got lots of hugs and smiles which is why we do this small service. SRARC wants to wish John and Rachel nothing but the best for their future life together. It was our pleasure to make their last night on their short break a happy one.
