Butch and Glenda - So sorry to hear about Marg. She was a wonderful lady, with a spirit so welcoming and warm, always generous with her time and talents. I have so many fond memories of spending time with her while I lived in Ithaca. She will be missed. My deepest sympathies to the whole family.

Margaret Long was the epitome of class and elegance. I learned a lot from her and will remember her in my heart and prayers forever.
