Dec. 23, 1921 - July 30, 2001

In Memoriam - If you stand very still in the heart of the woods you will hear many wonderful things, the snap of a twig and the wind in the trees and whirr of invisible wings. If you stand very still in the turmoil of life and wait for the voice from within, you will be led down the quiet pathways of wisdom and peace in a mad world of chaos and din. If you stand very still and hold to your faith you will get all the help that you ask. You will draw from the silence the things that you need, hope and courage and strength for your task.

A wise, giving, loving, honorable - Husband, Father, Brother, Mor Far, Far Far, Great Mor Far and Friend.

Always in our hearts

Our love

Bob Long

Bob Long, beloved husband, dad and grandpa passed away July 20, 2004. He was born January 22, 1922 in Oak Harbor, WA. At the age of four he moved with his family to Everett where he spent the rest of his life.

Graduating from Everett High School in 1941 with a keen interest in electricity, he went to work at Boeing in the pneumatic tool repair department. During World War II he served in the US Navy as an electrician's mate aboard the USS Chester. Bob went to work at Judd and Black as an apprentice in December 1945. As the business grew he took on added responsibilities in the company, eventually leading to the position of manager. He purchased Judd & Black in 1975 with the premise that his sons would take over the business and in December, 1986, after 41 years with the company, Bob retired, knowing that the store was in capable hands.

Bob's retirement was a happy time. He was excited when the Everett Giant's baseball team came to Everett. He enjoyed helping wherever he could and was called out of his seat many times to repair something electrical. He enjoyed his summer cabin at Tyee Beach on Camano Island, fishing, crabbing and communion with his neighbors. He was always available to help wire, repair or even dig a ditch.

Bob believed in giving back to the community for all the blessings he received from them. He often remarked he would never move from Everett because when he walked down the street he would meet so many friends. He was very proud of being honored with the Henry M Jackson Distinguished Citizen of the year in 1984 for the numerous contributions that he made to the community.

Bob was a long time active member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Everett, Everett Elks and The Everett Exchange Club. He was a proud member of the IBEW for 58 years. He was a resident at Sunrise View Convalescent Center for 11 months. The love and compassion that he and his family received from the staff was heartwarming. We will cherish the memory of not only the physical care but the emotional care as well that they offered.

Bob will be sorely missed by his loving wife of 61 years, Sue, children Barb Lamoureux, Bob Jr. (Cheryl) and Bill (Berneva) Long; Grandchildren, Aaron and Michelle Lamoureux, Christian and Samantha Lamoureux, Bobby Long and Tessa Widen, Cory and Kandice Long, Michael Long, Jeni and Bryan Mehaffey, Tacea and Jamie Wall, Jolene and Igor Braga, and Chandra Long; Great grandchildren include Taylor, Adam and Madison Long, Timothy Mehaffey, Delaney, Alex and Lily Lamoureux, Nick Widen and Chase and Magge Wall. Bob leaves his sisters Georgia Leckvold and Lola (George) Walmer and brother Lorry (Peggy Neilsen).

He was predeceased by mother Hazel Henneman Long, father and stepmother George and Vivian Long, sisters Lucille (Frank) Miller, Della (Dick) Kirkland and Lois (Ralph) Hatfield and many cousins, nieces and nephews whom he loved dearly.

Funeral services will be Friday, August 6, 2004 at 11:00 A.M. at Our Saviors Lutheran Church, 215 Mukilteo Blvd, Everett.

In lieu of flowers, memorials would be welcomed to Trinity Lutheran Church, 2324 Lombard, Everett 98201 or to Northwest Parkinson's Foundation, PO Box 56, Mercer Island, WA 98040.
