George Craft Kronmiller, Jr., of Howard County, Maryland, peacefully passed away on February 20, 2021. Born on June 16, 1933 in Jamestown, New York, George was a loving son, brother, husband, father and grandfather.
As an engineer with the Naval Research Lab and subsequently with NASA, he traveled to remote parts of the world and helped launch satellites into space. In 1967, George and his family moved to Columbia, Maryland, where he was instrumental in developing Wilde Lake’s Interfaith Center. He was also a founding member of New Hope Lutheran Church, where for many years he served as dedicated leader and usher. After the death of his first wife, Selma, he helped other families as a hospice volunteer. Throughout his life, George was a humble man of deeds, not words. He will be greatly missed.
His surviving family includes his loving wife, Elinor Kronmiller, daughter, Wendy Kronmiller, and sister, Susanne Lynch.
Contributions in his name may be made to New Hope Lutheran Church, 8575 Guilford Rd, Columbia Maryland 21046.
