Disney icon and Christian actor Dean Jones died on 1 September at the age of 84.

Jones was known for his commitment to wholesome entertainment and for starring in such beloved films as The Love Bug, That Darn Cat, and Blackbeard’s Ghost.

Despite his commitment to family entertainment, Jones’s life wasn’t always that of a committed Christian. In his early days of fame in Hollywood, Jones lived lavishly, buying expensive sports cars, going on exotic vacations, and spending his nights with different Hollywood starlets.
