Robert P. Cronin

Barbara, Amy, Katie, Paul & Bobby,
I was so sad to hear of Bob's passing. He was so young as was my Dad. I will always remember Bob as having a great tan and a greater smile! He was blessed to have such a wonderful family as you were blessed to have him. I understand the grieving process, but please keep the happy memories up front and close to your hearts as they will help you all thru this difficult time. Please know you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Love to all of you, cousin Kathy

Dear Auntie Barbara, Amy, Katie, Paul, and Bobby,
Words cannot express how sorry I am that God decided he needed Uncle Bob at such a young age. I will always hold the fond memories of childhood holidays close to my heart. I am so glad that he got the chance to meet both boys this summer. I will be thinking of you and wish you strength and love from one another.
Love, Jill & Larry

Dear Barbara and family. We were very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. He was a great guy. Bob sold us our home in Eastham. It was our fortune to have known him.

Fondly,

Stephanie & Bill Martin

Dear Cronin Family,
I am saddened to learn of your loss and can empathize with the anguish and grief you must be experiencing. I will not forget Bob Cronin's kindness when he would give me rides home I finished high school track practice and his love for for geography. My love for world geography and for running track are still strong elements in my daily life that I pursue, that were encouraged and supported by selfless mentors and educators like Bob Cronin. I will be thinking of him when I drive up to Bodega Bay this long weekend, from the other coast.

Dear Auntie Barbara, Amy, Katie, Paul & Bobby,

My thoughts are with you all, intermingled with happy memories of Uncle Bob and great sadness at his passing. I know that you will be strong for each other. Uncle Bob's greatest legacy is his family and the special bond you share as the "Cro-cro's."

When I think of Uncle Bob, I think of the framed poem about the "mean" father that I read every time I went to the house on Archer Street, and it makes me smile.

He will be missed.

With love,

Dear Cronin's,

One of my favorite memories of summer involves Uncle Bob taking me deep-sea fishing for the first time. He was so wonderful: gentle, funny, compassionate, and caring. He will be deeply missed and I'll think of him every time I set foot in a boat. Love, Matt

Dear Barb, Amy, Kate, Paul and Bobby,
My deepest sympathies and love to you all. I have so many memories of Bob and our fishing trips, bachelor parties, and our talks we had. I will always remember them. Thank you all for sharing a part of your dad with me. Love, Uncle George

Dear Barbara and Children

Don and I are sadden to hear about Bob. We are unable to attend as Don is recovering from knee replacement surgery.

Our thoughts and love are with you. I will call you when you get settled.

It was our pleasure to have know Bob and are deeply sorry for your loss. He will be really missed by both of us.

As always

Barbara and Donald Chad

Dear Cronin Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Please accept my deepest condolences. Mr. Cronin was a beloved father, husband and grandfather. I know he will be missed dearly by all that knew him. His memory will live on in so many hearts. Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
With love and respect,

Dear Barbara,Amy,Paul,Kate,& Bobby,

We share in your loss and celebrate Bob's memory.

Bob was a little bit of everything to us. He was a funny guy with his trademark long, tanned, skinny legs always on his way to the beach or going fishing. No one would ever guess that he wore a suit and tie most of the week somewhere over the bridge?

He was a great father and we will never forget him joining us, many Labor Days ago, to look for Steve and Bobby as they ventured to the dump to "Live off the land"!

He was always lovingly supportive of Barbara whether it was with her original "Cronin" T-shirts, her shops,the Bed and Breakfast or their joint quest to move to the Cape.

He became a grandfather at the same time that we did. It was obvious that he loved you all very much.

To us, he was a dear friend and neighbor, a gentleman who was always willing to jump in and help with whatever project we were attempting at the time.

We love you all and hope that the many loving memories that you all have will give you the peace and patience to know that you will all be together again some day.

Dear Paul, Jess, and Family,
We are sending you lots of love and strength. Please know that our thoughts, hearts, and prayers are with you.

Dear Barb and Kids,
You hold such dear memories of your life with Bob. I hope somehow that these will comfort you through the hard times, make you smile though the sad times and always be at your fingertips to share with others. You have been blessed by his wit, laughter, love, selflessness and affirmation. Love, Meem
