Jerzy was down with his family while his son was attending IMG Academy soccer camp. They decided to stay a few extra days to enjoy time on Anna Maria Island at the beach and in the Gulf of Mexico. Jerzy was out in about knee deep water tossing a ball with his son when he felt sand under his wedding ring. He stopped tossing the ball and spun the ring on his finger and pushed it to his knuckle to rinse the sand off. His son then tossed him the ball and when the ball hit his hand off went his ring. They looked for the ring but as we all know it is almost impossible to find it once it hits the sand. Jerzy found SRARC ring finders with Google and soon Mike Miller was in contact and went to meet him at the beach. Jerzy showed Mike the area where he had lost it but the water was to rough for a safe hunt so Mike said he would return when the tide was right and the water was calmer. Mike returned a few days later and hunted for three hours and had no luck. Still waiting for a good tide Mike returned a couple days later and finally had calm water. Two hours into the hunt the ring finally revealed itself. When Mike texted Jerzy a picture of his ring he was overjoyed. Since Jerzy and family have returned home it will be a few days until he can put it back on his finger and I’m sure when he opens the package he will have a huge smile on his face. It is always such a pleasure to return an item the owner thought was gone forever.

At their wedding on Anna Maria Island, Daniel was preparing to slide the wedding ring onto Emily’s ring finger when disaster struck. In preparation for receiving the ring Emily had removed her engagement ring and slipped it on to end of her little finger. As Daniel started to put the wedding onto her finger Emily’s reaction caused her to flip her little finger and off flew the engagement ring and disappeared into the sand as well. They quickly found the wedding ring and the ceremony continued. Later the whole wedding party searched but the engagement ring could not be found. Someone found SRARC ring finders online and contacted Joe Szemer. Joe called Mike Miller who responded immediately and headed for the wedding location on the beach. When Mike arrived the wedding party had left for the reception and there was another metal detectorist searching the area because someone who had been there when the ring was lost called him over when she saw him coming down the beach. They both searched for about 5 minutes and then the other detectorist found the ring. The Grooms brother (Matt) had called Mike earlier and requested that the he call him instead of the bride if the ring was found so he could surprise them at the reception. Mike was going to drive right by the reception on his way home so the other detectorist kindly gave Mike the ring so it could be delivered. Mike arrived about an hour later and called Matt to come to the parking area to get the ring. Matt had a master plan to present the ring to the Bride and Groom and invited Mike in to watch. Matt got the microphone and called his brother to center stage. He then talked a little about the catastrophe at the wedding and then open the box and gave the ring to his brother. Daniel called Emily up and got down on one knee and slipped the ring back onto her finger. The crowd was cheering and everyone was smiling from ear to ear. SRARC wants to wish the Bride and Groom the best for their future life together. We always like to be a smiling part to a happy ending.

Bo and Erica were down from Seattle visiting with family on Anna Maria Island. They all headed out to the beach to spend some time in the sun and surf. After setting up a space on the sand Bo decided he wanted to go for a swim. He took off his shoes and just to be safe he put his wedding ring into one of the shoes. A few hours later they were all packing up to leave and Bo grabbed his shoes and shook the sand out of them before putting them back on. He then suddenly remembered his ring had been in the shoe and was now gone. They all searched but no luck and then Erica found the ring finders and eventually contacted Howard Metts. They needed someone to come right away as they were leaving at 4:00 am the next morning. Howard contacted Mike Miller who responded immediately with his visiting daughter Kimberly and they met Bo at the beach location. Bo defined an area and Mike went to work. In about 5 minutes Mike got the hit and up came the lost wedding ring. Bo was overjoyed and Mike was all smiles to be able to return the ring. Kimberly did the photographs in which you can see how happy Bo was. All the best to Bo and Erica on their return to Seattle.

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.

John was with his wife and children enjoying a family reunion on Anna Maria Island. They had all come down from fridge Minnesota and we enjoying the sun and beach. They had rented a golf cart to cruise around on the island. John was returning to their rental unit on the cart and on arrival he gave his son a big high five. As their hands met, John felt his wedding ring fly off. It was in the area of their shell covered driveway which had a large group of plants in the middle. John’s wife had heard the plink of metal hitting metal and thought the ring must have hit one of the vehicles or a metal rental sign in front of the plants. The whole group searched and searched but could not find the ring. John’s wife finally googled “lost ring” and she found SRARC ring finders. She called Joe Szemer and Joe called Mike who made arrangements to meet the group at the site. Mike searched the entire driveway with no luck and then began trying to search among the plants in the middle. John got down on hands and knees to try and help by lifting the plants up so Mike could search under them. In just a few minutes Mike heard the nice tone of a ring and sure enough there it was hiding under a plant. Everyone clapped and cheered when John held up his ring and returned it to his finger. It is always a great feeling to return something so special to the person that lost it. It just makes for big smiles all around.

Juan was visiting Anna Maria Island with his Mom, Dad, and Brother for the day from Orlando. He is a social media influencer under the name Lejuan James and wanted to produce a skit about sharks and the warnings his mother gave him as a child. He got into a shark outfit and started running in the shallow water away from his brother whom caught him and tackled him. As soon as he hit the water he felt his wedding ring come off. They all searched for a while but found nothing. Juan called his wife, Camella, and she soon found SRARC ring finders on the internet. She called Howard who put out a call. Mike Miller responded and soon headed to the island to meet Juan. After searching for about an hour, an afternoon lighting storm appeared and the search was ended. Juan and family headed back to Orlando with an assurance from Mike he would return to hunt the next day. The next day after about 20 minutes Mike found the ring. He contacted Juan and let him know the ring had been recovered. Juan packed up his wife and child and met Mike at his house where the ring was returned among lots of smiles. Always a pleasure to put such big smiles on peoples faces. The short video is what was being filmed when he lost the ring.

Naomi and her husband and their two children were vacationing from Huston, Texas with other family members in Riverside. They all went to the beach on Anna Maria Island for some fun in the sun and gulf waters. They set up camp with a canopy and chairs and went about enjoying the day. At some point Naomi was in the water and could feel that her beautiful wedding ring was to loose and asked her husband to go put her rings into the beach bag under the canopy. He did as she asked except he put the rings onto a chair cup holder instead of the bag. When it came time to leave they picked up the chairs and the rings flew into the sand. Naomi’s brother spotted one of the rings but after continuing to search the wedding ring could not be found. After arriving home that evening Naomi’s grandfather found the SRARC ring finders on the internet. They contacted Howard Metts and he put out a request for hunters. Mike Miller responded and was soon on the hunt. After about 30 minutes the ring was recovered. Naomi was already in Orlando to catch a flight home so she asked her sister to meet Mike and the ring was put into her hands for the safe return to Naomi. SRARC is happy to have been able to bring another happy ending to a vacation in Florida.

Jessica and family were up from Venice, Fl to visit with her sister Laura and family living on Anna Maria Island. Laura and her family will soon be leaving for an extended trip to France so on Sunday afternoon both family’s headed to down the block to the beach to enjoy some time on the sand and playing in the Gulf. Jessica took both her engagement and wedding ring off and stored them safely in her shorts pocket. At some point in the afternoon, Jessica and Laura decided to play teenage girls again and started doing cartwheels up and down the beach. As evening approached they all packed up and headed for home. As they walked off the Beach Jessica reached into her pocket to get her rings and terror struck her heart. Nothing was in her pocket. They all returned to the beach and searched but soon realized it was fruitless since they didn’t have any real idea when the rings had been lost. Jessica’s husband googled lost and found Anna Maria Island and the SRARC ring finders popped up. Jessica was soon in touch with Joe Szemer who contacted Mike Miller. Mike made arrangements to meet with Laura the next morning to do the hunt. Laura staked out the area where they had been and Mike went to work. After about 45 minutes Mike got a hit and took a scoop of sand and dumped it out of the scoop. Right away he saw a shiny white gold object reflected in the sun. He motioned Laura over and pointed. Laura excitedly kneeled down and recovered the engagement ring. She then looked up at Mike and said “ There is another ring”. Mike took a swing over the same sand pile and then pinpointed the spot for her. She reached into the sand and up came the wedding ring. She couldn’t believe we had found them and instantly called her sister with the great news. Jessica was already in route from Venice in hopes the rings would be found and began crying as she received the good news. Mike was invited in for coffee while we waited for Jessica to arrive. After she arrived and the rings had been returned we all sat around the table and had a great conversation about their whole families adventures in moving from France to the USA. I want to welcome them all to the USA and thank them for their kind treatment of me. Most of all I loved to see the BIG SMILES on their faces as we parted ways.
