The legendary Father of Medical Marijuana, Dennis Peron, passed away today. Dennis was a true visionary who paved the way for the marijuana movement to take shape through his revolutionary work from co-authoring Prop 215 to opening the country's first medical marijuana dispensary on Market St. We are indebted to our friend Dennis' service, and will miss him greatly.
