Jackie was helping out at her Mom’s house in Sarasota by removing air plants from the hedges. As she was picking the branches down inside the hedge she felt her ring fall off. She looked around on the ground under the hedge and found it laying there. She put it back on and went back to picking air plants. When she finished she noticed her ring missing again. She searched the ground under all the bushes she had worked on but could not find her ring. After googling for help she found SRARC ring finders and contacted Joe Szemer. Joe contacted Mike and he made arrangements to meet Jackie at her mothers house. After detecting the ground under the bushes and finding only nails and screws, Mike started moving the coil over the tops and down into the bushes. Soon a nice signal sounded and Mike carefully searched the branches and only found a roofing nail that had been setting there for years. Disappointed, Mike continued to search the tops, sides, and down in between the branches of both bushes. Finally he return to the bush that the roofing nail had been found in and searched again. As he passed next to the area where the nail had sounded off earlier another strong signal was detected. A close inspection revealed the elusive ring. There were lots of smiles and hugs as Jackie was reconnected with her ring. It is always a pleasure to see the excitement and smiles when we get to return a lost item.

Patrick and his family were down to Longboat Key from Toronto, Canada for a short winter break. The whole group was out on the sand and Patrick was tossing a football back and forth with his dad when he realized his Wedding ring was missing. They all looked through the sand and raked the area that they had been playing but could not find it. Someone walking along the beach suggested they look online for help and as soon as Patrick googled “Metal Detecting Service”, SRARC ring finders popped up. Patrick called Joe Szemer and Joe called Mike Miller. Mike set up an appointment to meet at the site. Patrick laid out the area he thought the ring would be in and after about 20 minutes Mike found the ring. There were lots of smiles and now the rest of the vacation can be enjoyed with no bad memories.

Tiffany & Michael were down to Anna Maria Island from Connecticut for some fun and sun. They set up their area on Holmes Beach and Tiffany remembered she was wearing a very special ring so decided to protect it by tying it to one of the strings on her string bikini. During the day they ran around in the sand and tossed a football back and forth before going into the water to cool down. After returning to their area after cooling off, Tiffany noticed that her ring was no longer on her bikini. The area they had been in throughout the day was so large that it was impossible to search. They mentioned to a gentleman on beach named Bill what had happened. Bill suggested that they call SRARC ring finders. Joe Szemer got the call and contacted Mike Miller to see if he could respond quickly as the couple was going to leave in a short while. Mike headed down to the beach immediately and arrived just as they were leaving. Michael took Mike out to show him the area they thought he should hunt and then they left to return to Tampa. As Mike setup to begin the hunt, Bill came over and said he had been watching them the whole time they were there and that he should hunt in a completely different area than Michael had laid out. Since the area where the ring might have been lost (about the size of a football field) Mike went with what Bill suggested was the area they were most active in. After choosing to do the upper area first and having no luck Mike moved back to the middle and began the search of the lower area. After two sweeps the sweet sound of gold popped into Mike’s ears and sure enough there it was. Since Michael and Tiffany were already headed for return to Connecticut Mike will be returning the ring via USPS and is sure Tiffany will have a great big smile on her face when she opens the package. Thank you so much to Bill for putting Mike on the right track to finding the ring, without your help Mike would have never found the ring.

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.

Bobby with Wife Tiffany and Sons Gage and Grayson came down to Nokomis beach from Tennessee for a couple of weeks of vacation. As they were standing on the shore right next to where the surf was washing up onto their feet Bobby realized his wedding ring was a little loose and want to secure it up where their beach camp was. He tried pulling it off but just couldn’t seem to get it to budge. He asked Gage to help him by pulling on it and then off it came and fell into the surf and disappeared immediately. They all searched for about half an hour but did not find it. They returned to where they were staying and then Bobby thought to Google “lost ring Nokomis” and up popped SRARC Ring Finders. Bobby called Joe Szemer and Joe contacted Mike Miller the next morning. Mike contacted Bobby and made arrangements to meet the family that afternoon. Bobby provide an idea of where it had been lost and when Mike arrived early he went ahead and started to hunt the general area. In about 5 minutes up came the ring. Mike waited for the family to arrive and when Bobby stepped up and offered his hand to Mike for coming to help, Mike slipped the ring into his hand. He was so surprised that he looked at his wife and said “he already found it”. The whole family had nothing but Big Smiles after that. It is always a pleasure to return an item with such a large personal value to the owner. Another vacation tragedy averted and turned into a great memory.
