Jim and Anita Sutton celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary on Feb. 18. They were married in Santa Monica in 1945 toward the end of World War II.
Jim and Anita were stationed in several communities throughout the USA before moving to Tujunga in 1964 after Jim retired as a commander from the U.S. Navy with 22 years of service. The couple just completed their 51st year of living in their home in the Crystal View area, one of the few known original owners.
Family from Colorado, New Mexico, Washington and local communities gathered on Valentine’s Day to celebrate this momentous occasion. Jim and Anita have four children, six grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren.
