Omango Rango Django. R.I.P.

[Lenny]

Many of us had the pleasure to know and enjoy the music of Rango Django (Owen Monroe) on the beach. Sadly, yesterday Rango suffered a stroke and passed away at the hospital in Lucea.

Rest in peace my brother.

Sleep in peace and thank you for sharing yourself with us.

We were just talking about seeing him again this year. A quick end is a merciful thing! Peace to him, he will be missed.

I tried my first post today on this subject, but I think it went wrong.
So This is to report the sad passing of Rango, the well known and respected songwriter and singer who was always to be seen entertaining at the beach hotels.

During the last 2 or 3 years he spent a lot of time at Firefly's bar and sang at the Tuesday beach parties with his small band, even up to last week. That is wherel the photos were taken not long ago. He will be sadly missed.

I know there will be many who will recognize him in these photos and probably never knew his name. The other musician is Howie Williams.

In early December he was not strolling the beach with Howie. Howie had a new partner. I wonder if he wasn't feeling well then.

This makes me so sad. We met him and I:ratio the first day of our trip in October and we would talk to him every day. He would even call my name if I was out in the water. I remember him telling me that he used to perform with some bigger artists back in the day and I googled him when I got home because I was thinking of him. He was definitely one of the people that I was looking forward to seeing on our return trip. Very sad.
