Body of Teacher Gary Jones Found in Lake Oconee After Month-Long Search

News summary

The body of Gary Jones, an Atlanta teacher and coach, was recovered from Lake Oconee, a month after he and his fiancée, Joycelyn Wilson, went missing during a boating outing on February 8. Jones' body was located in approximately 45 feet of water, near where Wilson's body was found the day after their disappearance. The search for Jones involved extensive efforts, including underwater sonar technology utilized by Wisconsin search-and-recovery expert Keith Cormican, hired by Jones' family. Previously, authorities had discovered an empty boat circling the lake and found personal belongings belonging to Jones onboard. Both were reported to be celebrating Jones' 50th birthday at the time of their disappearance. Jones, who taught at Westminster Schools, was remembered as a significant influence on many lives, according to his family.
