Obituary for Cleo May Long (Alward)
CLEO LONG
1934-2022
Her knitting needles aren't clicking
Her sewing and quilting have stopped
Her jigsaw puzzles are piecemeal
Because they are still in the box
Her crosswords are not crossing
Her sudoku aren't put to the test
'Cause the hands that kept all this going
Have finally found their rest
In loving memory of our precious puzzler and crafter Cleo May(Alward) Long who died on Monday February 14th, 2022 at 5am. Cleo was at home among family and died peacefully in her sleep. Cleo was called home to rejoin those who predeceased her: husband, Elmer Grant Long (1986) two sons, Elmer Joseph (1960) Bradley Grant (2015), one daughter, Faith Ann (2021) and one son in law Bill Codling (2015). As well as 2 sisters Shirley Walker, Blanche Haskett and brother Wayne Alward.
Cleo leaves behind 8 children: Lee Long (Robin), Violet Codling, Charles Long,
Beryl McLean, Gerri Long, Marti Myke (Chancey), Mark Long (Marie), and Michael Long. In addition Cleo leaves 31 grandchildren, 31 great children, and 3 great, great grandchildren, as well as one adoptive daughter Annette Hammell.
Cleo is also survived by sisters Gladys Crawford, Linda McCall(Art), Gloria Dewey(Carl). And one brother Darryl Alward (Robin).
Cleo will be remembered generous, gracious, loving person she was. In lieu of flowers Cleo has asked that donations be made to Sunshine Dreams For Kids.
MOM, what will the Blue Jays do without you in their corner?
A private family service will be held for Cleo on Monday February 21st, at 11am with a livestream that will be available on Cleo’s tribute page for those to watch from home. Personal condolences may be made at www.ostrandersfuneralhome.com
