Not sure what to say?

The first time I saw Steve was at a huge anti-war march, the Vietnam Moratorium in 1969, that ended at the Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, followed by a rally with many speakers. Anyone else remember this? One of many memories shared with old friends and activists from the long 60s.

I was just shown this by a coworker of mine as we were sharing memories of our beloved friend Steve Wong. Steve was one of the kindest, friendliest and most thoughtful people I've ever met!

In Memory of, and a Tribute to, Steve Wong July 20, 1948 - August 23, 2021 I´m writing on my disbelief for losing our beloved Steve Wong, as well as sharing my condolences with his family for their loss.

Not many people would attempt to read the titles of all the books in Steve´s library, much less the text beyond their covers. Even fewer people could glean as much from all that reading...
