Steven W. Long, II, affectionately known as "Stevie," passed away on September 16, 2025, in Portsmouth, Virginia, at the age of 39. Born on January 14, 1986, in Norfolk, Virginia, Steven lived a life defined by laughter, loyalty, and unwavering devotion to those he loved.

A true "No B.S." kind of guy, Steven was quick with a joke, often the first to lighten the mood and the last to let anyone feel left out. His sense of humor endeared him to friends and family alike, and his hardworking nature was evident in all he did.

Steven is survived by his wife, Andrea; one daughter, Sway; four sons, Santino, Austin, Alex, and Aiden; his parents, Steven (Jeannette) Long and Kimberlyn (John) Baker; his siblings: Carrie, Christina, Ryan, John, Michael, Jasmine, and Selinna; grandparents, aunts & uncles, sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, a host of nieces & nephews, cousins, and countless friends.
