Jeanne Marie Long

Jeanne Marie (Moore) Long passed away peacefully on October 23, 2022, just shy of her 92nd birthday. She was born October 31, 1930 in Manila, Philippines, to the late William and Catherine (Geisler) Moore. Jeanne spent most of her life in Beavercreek, Ohio. She graduated from the University of Dayton with a degree in Education, and worked for a time as a laboratory assistant at Monsanto labs. After her husband passed in 1974, Jeanne became a registered nurse and worked at St. Elizabeth Hospital until her retirement.

Jeanne loved nature, animals and the color blue, and was an accomplished artist, pianist and dulcimer player. She volunteered her time at nursing homes and community events. She sang in the St. Luke church choir for many years. Those who knew her well remember her quirky sense of humor and love of collecting.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband, Clarence "Bud" Long; brother, William Moore Jr.; son, David Long; and grandson, Melvin "Vinnie" Morris.

Jeanne is survived by her four daughters, Rebecca Kaminski, Andrea Foreman, Paula Dunham, and Sylvia Morris-Elliott; ten grandchildren, Benjamin (Andrea) Kaminski, Nicholas (Shelby) Kaminski & Stephanie (Nicholas) Diesel, Michael (Dana) Foreman, Sarah & Stephen Foreman, Corey & Paige Dunham, and Angie & Christopher Morris; six great-grandchildren, Ethan & Julia Kaminski, Calvin Diesel, Theodore Foreman, Gabriel Hall & Logan Morris.
