Appointed appellate counsel for indigent defendants (retired.) I have lived in Big Sur since 1984, first on the north coast, and on the South Coast since 1989.

  • I concur with Holycowgirl, he was one sell guy who loved his family and had such a large heart for all. I feel so blessed that I got to witness his magic and his interactions with Ede and his boys. It still does not sit well for me that he has left, what feels like too soon.

  • Donation checks should be made out to Ede Rangel, Dante's widow. I'm sure anything will be greatly appreciated.
