Rich Cronin, the lead singer of LFO, passed away last night at the age of 35. LFO catapulted to success in 1999 with their breakout pop hit “Summer Girls,” which helped cement retailed Abercrombie & Fitch as a pop culture staple.

Mr. Cronin had a long-term battle with leukemia and suffered a stroke, according to the musician’s brother. Sad news all around.

Let’s remember Rich in his heyday with “Summer Girls,” the quintessential ode to Summer and being forever young. Check out the video below.
