Stephen Edward Krom, 33, of Fort Ann passed away peacefully on Thursday, August 14, 2025, surrounded by his Ioving family, after a courageous battle with stage four testicular cancer.

Stephen lived his life with a strength, humor, and kindness that touched everyone who knew him. Though his time here on earth was far too short, he filled his days with love, laughter, and the simple joys of being with the people he cared about most.

Stephen faced his illness with extraordinary bravery, never losing his amazing spirit or his ability to make others smile. He enjoyed working at Ace Carting (Waste Connections) where he strove every day to do his best. It was more than a job it was family.

Stephen loved his two boys more than anything and found his person with Emily, who has been by his side since day one.

Stephen is survived by his wife Emily and their sons Stephen Jr. and Preston, his parents Lisa and Dave Krom, brother Austin Krom (Ashley), nieces Melady and Mykena, grandmother Carol Moshier, grandfather Steve Krom (Karen), and many aunts, uncles, and cousins. He was predeceased by his grandfather Edward Moshier and grandmother Jeanne Krom.

A private celebration of Stephen's life will be held and those closest to him will gather to honor his memory.

Stephen's light will continue to shine in the hearts of all who loved him.
