Passed away peacefully at LHSC – University Hospital on Sunday, January 31, 2021 of RR 2 Dublin, formerly of Mitchell, at the age of 74. Cherished wife of Jerry Cronin for over 53 years. Loving mom of the late Joseph, Dave and Carole-Michelle, and Mike and Amy. Proud grandma of Dafydd, Owen, Malina, Davita, Evan, and Adelina; Alyssa and Aidan, Tyler, Kyle, Liam, Emmy, and Sam. Dear sister and sister-in-law of Dennis Dubrick, Jane and Ross Wilkie, Mary Smith, Stephen and Nancy Cronin, Karen Cronin, and Joanne Regier. Predeceased by Gayle Dubrick, Leo Smith, Jim Cronin, and Dave Regier.
Heather was passionate about her grandkids and her animals. She loved to spend time with her cousins from both sides of the border on her girl’s weekend each year and with her friends on their shopping week-ends. As a great listener, Heather could often be found in conversations with family and friends, both in person and on the phone. She was compassionate, caring and selfless, putting others needs before her own.
