Despite and In spite

When I was younger, I read a letter with a sentence that used both "despite " and "in spite (of) " - something like, " I value your friendship, despite and in spite. " I am sure that this is a play of words, but I would like to know if this is even grammatically correct.

Thank you in advance.
