The heartbreaking news of Dash's death was confirmed by producer, Louie Shelton. He is survived by his wife and their two children.

In 2018, Lua and Jim Seals’ cousin, Brady Seals, began touring as Seals & Crofts 2. She is the lead vocalist of the soft rock duo, Seals & Crofts 2. Both Dash and Lua kept their private life away from the limelight; thus, very little is known about their early life. Once, Lua shared that music shaped her childhood. She was quoted as saying:
"This music shaped my childhood, and now I get to sing it with Brady in a way that’s authentic and full of love."

Earlier, in an interview with St. Pete Catalyst, Lua Crofts opened up about her dad, Dash Crofts’ legacy. She mentioned that as the daughter of Dash, she knew the hits of the band, but when she and Brady began working as a team, they uncovered some wonderful songs from the catalogue. She highlighted that she thinks its her deep responsibility to carry on with his legacy. She added Jim Seals and Dash Crofts' contribution to the band. She was quoted as saying:
"I feel like I’m at the helm because Dash is my dad, so I feel a really deep responsibility. Because they really protected their legacy. They were two men of faith, so they really had not only a musical standard but a spiritual standard that they lived to. So I’ve been very, very careful about how I present myself, and their music. I really want to be protective of who they are, and who they were."
