David Malik Crawford

Today it the 4 year anniversary of daves passing. I think of him almost everyday. Dave and I were new friends, I started hanging out with his group of friend in stl and I spent almost every weekend and most weekdays with them on Main Street. Dave and I had some amazing conversations during that time. He was such a great guy, he was quiet but had so much to contribute. He really made me think about things in a totally different perspective. When he passed it really shook me. It shook me because i was just starting to really make a good friendship and it ended in an instant. Joey called me later in the day to tell me what happened and I just broke down. I was supposed to be with them that night but for some reason I decided to stay home because I had work the next day. I went to the crash site when I got off work and just totally lost it. I ended up finding a piece of his car and took it home with me. That little piece of plastic has been sitting on my dashboard for 4 years. I see it every time I get in my car. It reminds me to wear my seatbelt and that we could be taken at any moment and that's all we get. He is a constant reminder of how short life can be and that we need to make an impact on the ppl we care about. He was a good man that was taken too soon. But he will never be forgotten. I will never forget my short time with him. Dave, I love you and I'll see ya soon ❤
