Philreeves Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Sad news indeed. I think James wrote the music and Clarence Jr wrote the lyrics for their “Pasado” Stairsteps favourite . What a talented family!. RIP James .Condolences to Keni and the Burke family. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
