Stephen Krasnow Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Grondin Funeral Home - Rochester on Dec. 24, 2024.
Stephen J. Krasnow, 79, passed away peacefully at Dover Rehab on December 14, 2024. Born on April 11, 1945, in Boston, MA, he was the son of Israel Krasnow and Annie (Wish) Krasnow.
Stephen was an engineer at PBS for over 20 years, where his expertise and dedication left a lasting impact. A talented handyman, he could fix anything he touched. Stephen was a gifted musician too; he could play any guitar and had a beautiful singing voice. He was incredibly proud to be in a band, The Legends, and even wrote one of the songs on the band's album, "The Lonely Fudd". Stephen passed down this gift of music to his family. Another one of his greatest passions was traveling the world and creating radio stations that are still in operation today.
Left to cherish his memory is his daughter Kyle Krasnow and her husband Ron English; son Iann and his wife Sheila Krasnow; his son Dylaan Krasnow; daughter Jessica and her husband Marshall Garcia; brother Larry and his wife Annie Russo; grandchildren Emely, Abigail, Zachariah, Samantha, Isaac, Rosie, and Lily.
