John Shults and his girlfriend, Joy Morrow-Nulton, are both 94 years old.

Despite all the restrictions due to the pandemic, John and Joy were determined to make it work.

"She was worth it. It was a pain in the neck, though," John said of maintaining the relationship through the pandemic.

John's son Pete said the two would call each other every day.

"They'd find a way to get together. They did whatever it took," Pete said.

What it took, they say, was a return to simple pleasures, like long drives to nowhere, batting balloons around the house and a lot of selflessness.
