Family and Friends-
This memorial was created in memory of our beloved Daughter, Sister, and Friend, Hope Cronkhite, 47 years old, born on September 21, 1973, and taken from us entirely too soon on August 16, 2021. We will remember her as long as we live.
We started this principally so the leading lights in Hope's life, Donovan and Griffin, would have something they could look back on when they are older and understand and appreciate more about what a special person their Mom was. As such we're asking you to contribute in one or a combination of a few ways:
- You can leave a tribute on this page;
- You can click on the Gallery tab to upload all the photos you want. The more the merrier.You may not have a scanner, so photos of photos are fine.
- Stories are really where we would love people to contribute. Tell your favorite story of hanging out with Hope, or something crazy that happened with her, or just a song you both liked. Describe something you worked on with her. You can go totally nuts and include pictures, music, and videos, or just a little note.
To be totally clear, tributes are nice, pictures are great, but stories are really where it's at. Please help fill out the portrait of Hope's life by sharing your memories of her there. It doesn't even have to be a multimedia extravaganza.
Hope was a special person that touched many lives and will be greatly missed. It is our great desire that by establishing this site we can encourage visitors to record some of what made her so special such that the boys will be able to see a glimpse of what the person was before she was unfortunately taken by fate before her time, before they were able to fully appreciate it.
Finally, we ask you to give a thought to this site in the months and years after the memorial. As memories come back come to you in those passing day to day moments please set aside a little time to record them here. As much as we want it to be otherwise, it is the best we can do for the boys to give them something of their mother back.
-Steve, Alex, Randy, and Dave.
