Virginia Cronin Obituary
We are sad to announce that on November 17, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Virginia Cronin (Melrose, Massachusetts). Family and friends can send flowers and/or light a candle as a loving gesture for their loved one. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Virginia Cronin to show support.
As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let her loved ones carry forward the torch of her memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of her love and the brilliance of her spirit. Though Virginia may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, her essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her husband Dan; her children, Danny, Keri-Ann, Derek and Sean; her son-in-law Lew Barrett; her parents, William O'Neill and Virginia O'Neill; and her brothers, Bill (Marion) and Michael (Joan).
