Obituary

Lon Stephen Cravath of Zenda, WI died April 18, 2021 following a brief illness. Lon was born on September 25, 1951, was raised in Boston, MA, earned a BA in Marketing, and had a long and lucrative career in sales. A renowned partier, Lon loved the 1970s so much, he never really left. Along with the Rolling Stones, the James Gang, and Bruce Springsteen, Lon loved fishing, hiking in the White Mountains of New England, travelling across country, and he could slurp spaghetti with the best of them. Being a lifelong sports enthusiast, Lon bowled multiple perfect games, shot a hole-in-one, and rarely missed a Cubs opener. Predeceased by his father, Leonard Melvin Cravath, Lon is survived by his loving mother Irma, nee Rosenthal and brother Peter (Janet) Cravath. The graveside service is private and will be livestreamed Monday, 9:30 a.m. CDT at www.goldmanfuneralgroup.com. Under Recent Services, click onto Lon’s photograph and scroll down to Service Detail to view his service. We will miss his innate persuasiveness, his gentle soul, and his generosity of spirit. In lieu of flowers - smile, raise a glass, and pick up someone's tab in his honor. Info: The Goldman Funeral Group (847) 478-1600.
