Thinking and praying for you during this time.
Some of my fondest memories were going to the job site and working with Uncle Albert and my Dad. Albert, you were a friend and a mentor. Thank you being a part of our lives. You will live on in our memories and stories.
Ann I love you and I am sorry about Albert
Ann, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Al will be truly missed but not forgotten.
Ann we are Albert''s cousins. We love him and will miss talking to him on the telephone. Mary Lou doesn't have a computer so I'm doing this for us both. We are sorry we can't make the trip from Oklahoma at this time.
Love You and may God Bless You and comfort at this time.

It's sad to hear that another great Long family member has passed away. It seems our family is growing less and less.... God Bless A.O.'s family during this time. I am Huey Long's daughter and Jack Long's grand-daughter. I remember seeing Mr. Long at our family funerals, I just wish I had gotten to known more of my older generation of Longs. I am proud to come from a good bunch of people... God Bless you!
AO, you will be missed very much. Ann, may the Lord give you inner peace.
Uncle Al was a historian for the Long family. His knowledge, stories, and care for his family will be deeply missed. Aunt Ann, may you be blessed with grace, peace, and understanding during this sad time.
