Barbara Ann Long Obituary
With solemn reverence, we commemorate Barbara Ann Long of Kenton, Ohio, whose life came to an end on March 11, 2026 at the age of 89, leaving behind cherished memories. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid Barbara farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Barbara is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was predeceased by: her parents, Harry Sellin and Luella Sellin (Buss); her husband James Ardelle Long; her daughter Terri Risch; her sister Patricia Oglesbee; and her brother-in-law Wayne Tuck Oglesbee.
She is survived by: her children, Cynthia "Cindy" Keller (Bill) and Chris Long (Shonda); and her son-in-law Ron Risch. She is also survived by eight grandchildren; eleven great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Barbara's honor to the Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church in Kenton or Bridge Home Health and Hospice.
