Obituary "A Loving Father, Beloved Brother, Cherished Grandfather and Uncle" Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you, not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. -John 14:27 Daron Wayne "Blue" Long, 51, peacefully transitioned into eternal rest on January 2, 2021.

He was an entrepreneur, owner, and operator of Blue Skies Moving Company for over 35 years, and his company provided commercial and residential moving services throughout Maryland and Northern Virginia. Blue had an infectious smile and was a hard worker, coach, mentor, and very hospitable to everyone he encountered. Daron leaves to cherish his memories, his long-time companion Colleen Woods, his loving children Travis, Jasmine, Jeanine, Jada, Daron, Jennica, Makaila, Malik, Kayla, Jae'lyn, Jermaine, Jaire, Kobe, Jordan, Collinda, Colleena, and Parker; grandchildren Jaylen, Chanel, Chloe, Journee, Amara, and Juliette.

The interment will take place on January 15, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. at Greater Ransom Way of the Cross Temple, 90 South Lake Lodge Ext. Henderson, NC 27537. Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day Rage, rage against the dying of the light Though wise men at their end know dark right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. -Dylan Thomas
