On September 10, 2025, we lost Mary Elizabeth Long unexpectedly. Mary was born on December 12, 1956. Mary was preceded in death by her father, George Joseph Long, and mother, Ruth Mary (Tonne) Long; her sisters, JoAnne Vasvery, Diane Emaheiser, and Rebeca Long; her nephew, Jesse Michalak Jr.; and her longtime companion, Dave Luce. Mary is survived by her sisters, Pat (Byron) Griffin, Kathleen Long, and Peggy Johnson; her children, Chad (Megan) Luce, Kyle Luce, and Shannon Luce; and her beloved grandchildren, Chad Luce Jr., Ethan Luce, and Liam Luce, as well as many nieces and nephews.

The family could use support with final expenses for Mary, and to help support the family through several hardships as they grieve.
