Longtime loves among those lost in wildfire
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — More
than 30 people have died in the dead-
liest week of wildfires in California
history. The victims include a couple
who recently celebrated their 75th
wedding anniversary, a woman born
with a spinal defect who worked to
help others and a woman who died
in her husband’s arms as they sought
safety in a backyard swimming pool.
Together in life and death
Charles Rippey, 100, and his wife,
Sara, 98, are the oldest victims of the
wine country wildfires identified so
far.
Their bodies were found by one of
their sons who had made his way past
security and found the home in Napa
where they had lived for 35 years
completely gone. Only two blackened
metal chairs, a porcelain tea set of
white and soft washes of blue and other
small remnants remained to testify to
the couple’s long life together.
Charles Rippey — who was known
by his nickname “Peach” since he was
a toddler — appeared to be heading to
the room of his wife, who had had a
stroke in recent years.
Mike Rippey said his father would
have never left his mother. The couple
met in grade school and recently cele-
brated their 75th wedding anniversary
with their five children.
“Those of us in the family always
would, you know, wonder what would
happen if one of them died and the
other one was still left because we
knew that, you know, there’s no way
they would ever be happy whoever
was the last one and so they went
together,” Rippey, 71, said as he stood
among the charred ruins of their home.
The couple attended the University
of Wisconsin and married in 1942
before Charles Rippey served as a
U.S. Army engineer in World War II.
He then became an executive with the
Firestone tire company.
Dedicated to helping others
Christina Hanson, 27, used a
wheelchair and spent her life dedicated
to helping others despite her own hard-
ships, her family said.
Kelsi Mannhalter had posted on
social media asking people to search
for her cousin after the fire Monday
ravaged Santa Rosa where Hanson

leave their Napa, Calif., home, and

through.
lived.
Mannhalter later confirmed on
Facebook that Hanson did not survive
when the flames consumed her home.
“Just surreal,” Manhalter posted.
“I love you so much and am going to
miss you sweet cousin. I can’t say it
enough.”
Her father was found collapsed on
the street in front of his home with
third-degree burns and was taken to
a hospital in San Francisco. Hanson
had tried unsuccessfully to reach him
as flames surrounded her apartment
around 1:30 a.m. Monday, the San
Francisco Chronicle reported.
Hanson was born with a spinal
defect and lost her mother at 9 to lupus.
Still, her focus was always on
others, her stepmother, Jennifer
Watson, told the newspaper, describing
her as “a very happy, social and posi-
tive person.”
Hanson volunteered two days a
week at an Alzheimer’s residential
care facility in Santa Rosa, where she
would entertain residents.
She also taught herself sign
language and interpreted for the
hearing impaired.
“She loved helping people and
loved her family,” said Watson, who
was with her stepdaughter the day
before she died.
Her family wrote in an online
obituary that Hanson “was granted her
angel wings.”
Died in her husband’s arms
In the 55 years they were married,
Carmen Caldentey Berriz had spent
countless hours in her husband Arman-
do’s arms.
In his arms was where the
75-year-old took her last breath on
Monday, as he held her afloat in a
swimming pool as walls of fire burned
around them, the San Francisco
Chronicle reported.
Carmen had known Armando was
the one since she was 12, and the
two dated for years before marrying
in 1962. By the time Carmen turned
75, their family had grown to include
two daughters, a son, their children’s
spouses and seven grandchildren.
The Berrizes were three days into a
vacation at a Santa Rosa rental house
with family when son-in-law Luis
Ocon woke early Monday morning
and saw the fire begin to overtake the
neighborhood.
They fled to their cars.
Luis, Monica Ocon, and their
daughter made it through the thick
smoke and flames and pulled over,
watching for Carmen and Armando’s
car to emerge behind them. It never
came.
Armando Berriz’s car had gotten
stuck on a fallen tree. He told his wife
they had to run back to the house to
take shelter in the backyard pool.
As flames melted the chaise lounges
a few feet away, Carmen clung to
Armando, who kept them both afloat
by hanging onto the brick sides of the
pool.
Armando Berriz held on for hours,
even as the brick burned his hands,
even as his wife stopped breathing. He
let go only after the flames had burned
out, laying Carmen on the steps of the
pool with her arms carefully crossed
over her chest.
He walked two miles to find fire-
fighters.
“Everything they did was as a
team,” daughter Monica Ocon said.
“They had this bond and this strength
that literally lasted a lifetime.”
