Anthony "Tony" Cronis of N. Quincy passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his loving family on June 24, 2017. Born in Boston in 1918, Tony moved to North Quincy in the early 1960s. He owned a couple of businesses in the South End and for 20 years before retiring, worked as a carpenter in the Union Local 33. The beloved husband of 35 years to Lena (Minichiello) Cronis, Tony was the loving father of Douglas R. Cronis and his wife Regina of Weymouth; stepfather of Brian and Kevin Weaver of Everett; grandfather of 5 and great-grandfather of 5; and is also survived by many nieces and nephews. Tony split his time between Quincy and Naples, FL. He stayed active by being a member of the Castle Island group, Ward 4 Senior Center and the Kennedy Center in Quincy.

Uncle Tony was a class act. And his love to dance was infectious. He was my 'twist' partner at family weddings, including mine. Sending love and sympathy to all. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.

Love,
The Cronis Family ~ Andrew, Amy and Taylor

Anthony was a wonderful husband to my sister Lena and a wonderful brother-in-law. He and my husband Ralph would sit and talk for hours about anything and everything. I am certain they will be catching up. Anthony you will truly be missed.
