LA wildfire survivors rebuild holiday traditions after year of devastation

After losing homes, heirlooms and decades of memories, Angelenos are piecing together new rituals this season

Michael Holland and his wife, Anne Louise Bannon, built up an extensive collection of Christmas decorations, including heirlooms from their respective childhoods over the 27 years they lived in their Altadena home.

We tried to buy a new ornament every year as part of our tradition," Holland told the Guardian.
