Ron and Mary Lou Jones–Married 66 Years

Posted by Elva 
· August 10, 2012 

ELOPED IN 1946
Mary Lou and Ron met in their junior year at San Diego High School in 1943. After Ron’s discharge from the Navy in June 1946 they eloped and married. They were 19 and 20 years old. “Our love story really began after 17 years of marriage,” says Ron. “And after a BA for Mary Lou and DDS for me, 3 kids, golf gods, sailboats, sport cars, campers and Airstream trailer, and bigger and bigger homes.”

In 1962 Mary Lou became involved in a Bible Study. While sitting at home listening to the Radio Bible Class in 1963 she invited Jesus to be her Lord. Later, Ron became a Christian, too. “That,” says Ron, “started a love affair between Mary Lou and me as we grew in our understanding of the love of Christ that had been missing for the first 17 years of our marriage. That was 49 years ago, and Jesus and His love have surrounded and nurtured and protected us through many ups and downs as we have looked to Him increasingly every day for guidance in our lives.”
