I didn't know Mr. Long personally but I do know is lovely daughter Donna and she has to be a reflection of her daddies eye, I'm sure he was a great kind man. I've been praying for Ralph since he became sicker. Donna's absences from work told me to pray and I did. I know Ralph is sitting with the Lord and is at an eternal peace with himself and the Long family gets to keep all the good memories of their Father and Husband. Peace be with you all!
