Cronin also starred on the VH1 series Mission: Man Band, where former boy band members tried to hit it big a second time around.

"Rip to a great friend rich c," Mission co-star Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC said on his Facebook page Wednesday.

Cronin created the Cronin Hope Foundation to raise awareness about the disease and encourage others to become bone marrow donors.
