Alan Earl Long, 64, of Luray, passed away on Thursday, April 10, 2025.
Born on June 7, 1960 in Luray, Alan was a lifelong member of the community who was dearly loved and respected by everyone who knew him.
He was the beloved father of two daughters, Jennifer Long and Amanda Long; three sons, Jason Long, Benjamin Long, and Edward Long; brother to Teresa Pyne; and grandfather to Matthew Long. He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert Earl Long and Gwendolyn June Monger Long, and a brother, David Long.
He believed in the value of hard honest work, being a true friend, and providing help and support to his community.
Alan was a cornerstone to his family and will be dearly missed.
A memorial for Alan will be held at the Stanley Volunteer Fire Department Social Hall on Thursday, April 17, from 4 - 7 p.m.
The family welcomes all to join us as we remember and pay tribute to the life of Alan. Instead of a scheduled program, we invite anyone interested and able to stop by to share their memories and listen to stories about Alan.
Alan hated suits and ties so please leave those at home.
