Culture: Rich Cronin, one third of “Summer Girls”-belting LFO, dies of leukemia
- LFO had a couple hits, leukemia made Rich Cronin sick, and sadly, he died at the end of the summer, of the summer. He liked girls that wore Abercromie & Fitch, he fought hard and he had one wish – to teach people about acute myelogenous leukemia. Cronin, 35, co-wrote “Summer Girls,” the 1999 boy-band song above. He died of the disease today. Love or hate the song, let’s just admit that he lived a pretty good, well-meaning life. RIP man. source
