Patrick Michael Cronk

Patrick Michael Cronk, 58, passed away on May 7, 2026, after a long and courageous battle with renal failure. Born on February 17, 1968, in Lincoln, Nebraska, Patrick endured many years of dialysis treatments and serious ongoing health challenges from birth. Despite this, he continued to pursue the hobbies and passions that brought him joy. He loved cars and often described himself as being born with a steering wheel already in his hands. He also enjoyed riding his motorbike, golfing, creating and enjoying art, and spending time appreciating life's simple pleasures.

Patrick is survived by his father Michael; his three sisters Kelly, Ashley, and Morgan; his daughters, Tiffani Wallace and her husband, Terrance Wallace, along with their two daughters Tia and Taleah; and Lindsay Nelson and her husband, Michael Nelson, and their children, Fox, Elwood, and Farrah.

He is preceded in death by his mother, Brenda Cronk, and his grandmother, Clarice Becker.
