Altadena couple’s 60-year marriage marks new chapter after Eaton Fire
As the deadly Eaton Fire roared toward the Altadena home that Ray and Mary Jo Spano had lovingly restored from near ruin, Ray grabbed their most precious possession: nearly 300 love letters from their courtship in the early 1960s.
“Everything can be taken from us, but we also need to be cognizant that this is only a speck of what we are going to experience in eternity. I tell people that our house went up to heaven before we did.”
-Ray Spano
Get to love these lesser-known saints on Feb. 14
I love the month of February. I love it because its midpoint is such a great holiday. You romantics out there know right away that I’m talking about Feb. 14, the great feast day of love, love, love — the memorial of Sts. Cyril and Methodius.
