I am so sorry to hear of Anthony's passing. Vanessa broke the news to me. I have such great memories of the entire Louisville gang, also including Monica Roberts, who recently passed as well.
I will never forget when Dawn and Anthony fired up the Aerostar, whose transmission Anthony had just rebuilt, they scooped me up in Columbus, and we headed out to DC for a summit with the NGLTF. On the outskirts of DC, it started dumping snow on us, but Anthony followed the snow plow into the city. After making the last half mile or so on deep, unbroken snow, we all arrived and were the ONLY activists to have gotten there. Anthony had delivered us on our mission, and we made quite an impression!
I will also never forget the seemingly endless laps around DuPont Circle, Mr. Eagan's, and other highlights that still put a smile on my face.
I was privileged to have known Anthony, to have fought for civil rights alongside him, and to be a part of his wedding celebration. We have lost a very good person, and the world is a slightly lesser place without him.
Earline and I offer our deepest condolences to his family. And RIP, my friend.
