Denise Cronin died on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, at the age of 63. Her obituary lists her home at the time of death as Northridge, Ohio, close to Springfield, where she had been born. No cause of death has been made public, and no further medical details have been released by her family.
Her death was announced through a standard obituary and death notice placed with the Dayton Daily News and the Springfield News-Sun, with funeral arrangements handled by Littleton and Rue Funeral Home and Crematory of Springfield, Ohio. There is no indication of a public statement from any employer, institution, or organization, which is consistent with her having lived a private, family centered life rather than a public one.
Her family's tribute focused on her role as a mother and grandmother, saying that nothing made her happier than time spent with her children and grandchildren. She was remembered alongside her brothers, Rodney and Raymond Hickman, and her sister, Linda Friessen, and the notice recalled that she had already lost her parents, Wayne and Dotty Hickman, and a nephew, Matthew Sigler.
A visitation for family and friends was scheduled for Sunday, November 15, 2026, from 2 to 4 p.m. at Littleton and Rue Funeral Home and Crematory, 830 North Limestone Street in Springfield. A funeral service celebrating her life is due to be held the following day, Monday, November 16, 2026, at 11 a.m., at the same funeral home.
