In Memory of Coach Patrick Kronk

UPDATE (March 12, 2020): At this time, any additional donations should be sent to Leto High School c/o Principal Larissa McCoy at 4409 W Sligh Avenue Tampa, FL 33614. Checks/money orders should be made payable to The Leto High School Football Program. Thank you, again, for the outpouring of love and support. ❤️

On February 16, 2020, Patrick Kronk, an amazing advocate of students, a loving teacher, and an exceptional leader and coach, passed away unexpectedly. His death has been a shock to both his birth family and his Falcon Family.

In lieu of flowers, The Kronk Family is requesting that family and friends make a donation to the Leto High School Football Program. All proceeds will directly impact students and a scholarship will be established in Coach Kronk’s honor. 

A man of integrity, the kindest person we’ve ever known, Coach Kronk will be greatly missed.  And, the students and staff/his family and friends who were close to him will be forever changed by the power of his endless, unconditional love. 

UPDATE: Thank you all so much for the generous donations to the Leto High School Football Program. As the Principal of Leto High School, I am humbled by the love and support. On Friday, I met with Mr. and Mrs. Kronk, and we discussed their vision for how these donated monies should be spent. They would like to see a portion of the funds allocated to several years worth of scholarship funds for The Coach Patrick Kronk Memorial Scholarship. They would also like a portion of the funds to assist students with obtaining physicals for eligibility. Lastly, they wanted a portion of the funds to go toward the purchasing of equipment for the team, namely sleds. Mrs. Kronk said she knew it was a huge need because it was what Patrick talked with them about when he came home from work and practice. At this time, as the party responsible for handling this campaign at the request of the Kronk Family, I am going to end the campaign. As a result, I will deposit the entirety of the donations (sans the Go Fund Me fees) into the Leto High School Football Booster Club Account.
