💔 Prayers Pour In for Dana Perino After She Shares Emotional News
The loss has prompted an outpouring of support for Perino, one of the most recognizable conservative voices in media, while also shining a spotlight on the close-knit family that helped shape her life and career. Leo Perino and his wife, Jan Perino, raised two daughters, Dana and Angie, and were known for emphasizing service, hard work, and community involvement. According to reports, Leo spent much of his life in the Denver area, where he was active in civic causes and community improvement efforts. While Dana went on to build a national profile in politics and television, she has often spoken about the values she learned growing up and the role her parents played in her success.
Jan Perino, Dana’s mother, also devoted much of her life to service. Raised in Rawlins, Wyoming, Jan was described in a 2013 interview as an accomplished athlete who later dedicated years to volunteer work and nonprofit service. At the time, she was preparing for retirement and looking forward to spending more time pursuing hobbies such as golf, skiing and tai chi. Jan said one of her most rewarding experiences was working with Lutheran Family Services.
