Wedding Bells for Jarod and Ruth

It has been awhile since 3rd KL saw a wedding (for an active officer anyway, the last being Mr. Tan Chee Keong's wedding - way back in 2005), so when our two Junior Section Officers tied the knot it was quite a joyous occasion!


Jarod Kok and Ruth Boh both met while serving in the 3rd Kuala Lumpur Company. Jarod joined after Mr. Terence Tay, who were both church members in Life Methodist Church Puching, requested for help from Jarod having learned of his skills handling children. 

Ruth joined 3rd KL in 2009, after our then Staff Sergeant Justin Goh had a physical injury and was admitted to Assunta Hospital where Ruth was interning. Justin was wearing the 3rd KL t-shirt, where Ruth immediate recognised the BB emblem, as she previously served with the 2nd Melaka Company. 

From here on, a collision of fates was inevitable, as Jarod and Ruth soon fell in love with one another after serving for several years in 3rd KL. 


It was a beautiful ceremony, held at Trinity Methodist Church Petaling Jaya. Our Boys and officers were most honoured to be given the opportunity to perform a band item for the happy couple and a "Guard of Honour" as the newly weds walked out of church.

The day was not done after the wedding service as the 3rd KL Boys joined the 1st Petaling Jaya Company for a round of fellowship.

After the fellowship, the day was still not done as the gang proceeded to SS2 mall for a wedding dinner.


Wishing the couple much blessings from Above and their love to one another to be everlasting.
