Robert Alan Long, age 28, passed away on September 21, 2018 after a long, hard fought battle, surrounded by his family and friends. He was born on March 31, 1990 in Grand Rapids to Robert and Patricia (Fitzgerald) Long. He graduated from East Kentwood High School and later went on to work for JBS of Plainwell. He was the most kind-hearted person. He would never hesitate to help someone in need, even if that meant giving his shirt off his back. He liked to make people laugh, sometimes at the expense of himself. He was truly one of a kind. His grandparents, John and Jacqueline Fitzgerald, preceded him in death. Robert will be lovingly remembered by his parents, his sister, Robin Long, and many other family and friends. Visitation will be held on Friday, September 28, from 10 am - 12 noon at Stroo Funeral Home,  1095 68th Street SE, Grand Rapids, where the service will begin at 12 noon. Memorial donations may be made to the American Cancer Society.
