Shirley Ann Harriet Mickelson Long, 85, passed away peacefully on May 4, 2025. Born on December 15, 1939, in Gunnison, Utah, Shirley was a woman whose kindness, warmth, and love touched all who knew her.

She was the daughter of Clarence and Jeanie Mickelson, who instilled in her the values of resilience, hard work, and deep devotion to family. Shirley was one of six siblings: Don (deceased), Ray (deceased), Carol, Robert (deceased), and Joan.

Shirley is survived by her children: Richard (M’Lisa) Long, David Long, Lisa (Vinko) Relja, and Michael (Karen) Long. She was a proud grandmother to 15 grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild—each a testament to the love and care she gave so freely.
