Dennis James Cronin

January 2, 1939 — September 11, 2016

Dennis Cronin passed away peacefully on September 11, 2016, surrounded by his loving family. Born in Brooklyn, New York, to Agnes Eileen and Timothy Edward Cronin, he chose to live most of his life in California. He graduated from St. Lawrence University with a Bachelor's of Science in Mathematics. His chosen career was as a successful salesman in high tech followed by establishing his own executive search firm, Cronin Search. He was married to Nancy Johnson for 41 years, who died after a long illness in 2002. He is survived by his devoted daughter Cathy Wheaton and two grandchildren, Dennis and Grace. Dennis had a warm, delightful, Irish sense of humor with an amazing ability to put all at ease. For the past 13 years he traveled the world with his fiancée Barbara Lowell and you would find them more often than not on the high seas or the beach. As a wine enthusiast he belonged to many wine clubs where he was a favorite of tasting room staff, seldom forgetting a name. Much to the dismay of his opponents, he was an accomplished table tennis player and liars dice participant, winning more than losing. Dennis excelled in athletics and was an active member of the Oakmont Golf Club. His warm, engaging personality will be remembered by each one of us who knew him well. A Celebration of Dennis' Life" will be held at a future date. Memorial contributions may be made to the Sonoma County Humane Society (5345 Highway 12, Santa Rosa, CA, 95402)
