Claudia Long, R.I.P.
February 7, 1950 – February 11, 2026
my dear friends,
it is with great sadness that I must share the terrible news that Claudia Long, my wife for the past 41 years and the love of my life for the past 46, passed away peacefully in her sleep this morning.
I am in shock right now and I am numb.
thank you all for hanging in there with me. I’ll be back to writing in a few days.
