Joe David Longan Jr. of Mustang, Oklahoma, passed away on January 15, 2023, at the age of 81. Joe was born in Seminole, Oklahoma, on October 7, 1941, the son of Joe David Longan Sr. and Lorraine (Howard) Longan.
Until his retirement, Joe worked as a Troubleshooter for the Western Electric/AT&T corporation, a career he thoroughly enjoyed. He liked working on cars, watching his favorite sports, and he loved to go fishing as often as possible. More than anything, Joe treasured time spent with those he loved. He loved being with his best friend, Sandy, and he adored spoiling his dog, Buddy. Joe will be dearly missed.
He is preceded in death by two daughters, Melissa Brandon, and Trudy Watters, his parents, Joe and Lorraine Longan, two brothers, Micky Longan, and Lonnie Longan, and one great-grandchild, Daiden Watters.
Left to cherish his memory are his former wife and love of his life, Sandy Longan; his grandchildren, Ryan Brandon and his wife, Alison, Ashlee Turner and her husband, Billy, David Watters and his wife, Cayla, and Trai Watters and his wife, Natalie; along with ten great-grandchildren, two sons-in-law, Danny Watters, and Todd Brandon, and many loving extended family members and friends.
