Elizabeth Long Obituary

Elizabeth Long, 73, of Zionsville, passed away peacefully on July 6, 2025, at Lehigh Valley Hospital – Cedar Crest. She was the beloved wife of George W. Long, with whom she shared 45 years of marriage. Born in Massapequa, NY, she was the daughter of the late Carl and Emilia (Dzuiba) Heuser. Elizabeth spent much of her career in retail sales, working at Pooch & Kitty and Lee's House of Reptiles and The Fish Room. Her love for animals extended beyond her profession-she was an active member of the Kan-Do-K9 Sports Association, the Allentown Dog Training Club, and the Lehigh Valley Rabbit and Cavy Breeders Association. In addition to her husband, she is survived by her son, Nathaniel C. Long, and daughter, Jessica M. Long. Services will be private at the convenience of the family.
