Rafael Montero Toranzo

Rafael Montero Toranzo, Montero to his family and friends, was born on August 21, 1961. Until he was 42 years old, he lived at 131 Antonio Barrera Street, between Cuba and Martha Abreu, in the Buena Vista neighborhood, very close to the railroad line in this city. And, “like all the boys in the neighborhood, I loved to watch the trains go by on that branch line,” he recalls.
