The Crawfords are considered the "first family" of Oklahoma racing and a big reason the Chili Bowl calls Tulsa home.

Crawford was the 2007 Chili Bowl Midget Nationals Rookie of the Year and was to race at last Saturday's event.

For those who want to contribute, a Racing Scholarship Fund has been established in Honor and Memory of the Broken Arrow native.
