Jerry Jedon Ruthardt

Jerry Jedon Ruthardt, known to friends as Jedon, hails from Muleshoe, TX, a charmingly small town in West Texas where tumbleweeds outnumber the residents. In this close-knit community, Jedon crafted his first book, Ties That Bind: An Uncommon Journey to True Love. With a narrative as heartfelt and genuine as his own life, the book reflects his deep appreciation for the extraordinary moments in the ordinary. Jedon has been happily married to his wife, Tonya, for 36 wonderful years. Together, they have raised five children and built a life filled with love and laughter. When he’s not immersed in writing, you can find Jedon with a honey-do list in hand, often accompanied by Tonya, as they tackle their shared projects. The couple cherishes their tranquil country life, tending to their horses, farm animals, and flourishing garden. In every aspect of his life, Jedon embodies the spirit of dedication and simplicity that defines his storytelling.
