I'm looking or that slide show/video about Steve which was shown at his memorial, for inclusion in a piece I've been meaning to write about him, for the San Francisco Bay View, National Black Newspaper. I thought it would be on this site, but if it's here, I'm somehow missing it.
ReplyDeleteI'm missing Steve Conley today. I've never stopped thinking about him, how much he gave us.
