Michael Kent Long

Michael Kent Long, lovingly known as Mike, passed away on August 19, 2024, at the age of 84 in Woodstock, GA. A man of many talents and passions, Mike led a full and vibrant life.

Born in Richmond, IN, Mike was the proud owner of the Richmond Glass Company, a business he managed successfully until 1982. After enduring the heartbreaking loss of his daughter, Kimberly, Mike and Senlin sought solace and a fresh start by moving to Sanibel Island, FL. While in Sanibel, Mike had a rewarding career in Real Estate. In 1987, he relocated to Marietta, GA, where he established a home improvement business, further showcasing his dedication to hard work.

Mike was also an enthusiastic pilot, and his love for flying led him to accumulate enough hours to earn a Commercial Pilot’s license, a testament to his passion and commitment to his hobbies.

Mike is survived by his beloved wife of 64 years, Senlin Long; his devoted daughter, Heidi Oldenburg, and her husband, Kent Oldenburg; his cherished grandchildren, Ryan Oldenburg and Kimmie O’Shea and their spouses Nicole Oldenburg and Daniel O’Shea; his adored great-grandchildren, Sophie and Harper Oldenburg; and his sister, Stephany Andrews and sister-in-law, Linda Ward.
