Last year, Richard Davis (22 years old) was killed in a car accident at the corner of 90th and MacArthur in East Oakland, California. Days later, the half brother of the victim, Darrell Armstead, a popular turf dancer, and his crew, The Turf Feinz, paid an artful tribute at the scene of the crash. Filmmaker Yoram Savion captured this amazing dance that unfolded in the cold winter rain.

Mr. Davis left us early, but he left a legacy that his friends and family felt was worth dancing to.  What things will survive your death that others may celebrate?  Here are 10

Huddle up with your kids tonight and show them Mr. Armstead’s video and talk about the “gift of now.”
