​This month's February cover features This month's cover features a lock of love symbol. A love lock or love padlock is a padlock that couples lock to a bridge, fence, gate, monument, or similar public fixture to symbolize their love. This symbolizes the couple's eternal bond and new life together. Typically, the sweethearts' names or initials, and perhaps the date, are inscribed on the padlock, and its key is thrown away (often into a nearby river) to symbolize unbreakable love. I included the number 20 to symbolize the number of years we have served our community, as well as "Frank + Christy" because my husband has been my best supporter as we have published Latino Lubbock Magazine. Here's to 20 more years!

​Latino Lubbock Magazine's February issue also includes health info, business info, memorials, info for youth, and so much more - you don't want to miss it!
