Bob Kronowitt lived an unconventional life. Born in 1927 to immigrant parents, Bob had more careers than anyone could shake a stick at. He drank and smoked like a chimney up until the end, covered his food in salt, emptied ten sugar packets into every cup of Dunkin' Donuts coffee that started his day, and yet, he outlived almost all of his contemporaries. Bob, along with his second wife Micki, were one of six couples who founded the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Bob's tireless efforts on behalf of his daughter Tracy, not only brought awareness for the first time to the terrible complications of Type 1 Diabetes, but also radically changed both the expectations and model for how all nonprofits should operate.
