Mr. Long was of a quiet, unassuming nature who was deeply loved by all who knew her. She was a good religious character and a devout member of the Catholic faith. She was a loving wife and mother, a kind friend and neighbor and a good citizen in her community and her death will be mourned by all. The large number of relatives and friends at the last rites bore silent tribute of the high esteem in which she was held.
