ROGERS — Helen Glemboski Long,

94, of Rogers, Ark., passed peacefully away July 19, 2020, at Circle of Life Hospice in Bentonville, Ark. She was born July 7, 1926, in Colchester, Conn., to Joseph Glemboski and Katherine Pasternak Glemboski.

While she was born and raised in Connecticut, she lived most of her life in the South and adapted to Southern climate, culture and foods, but she never lost her Northern accent or love for her family, hometown and New England culture.

She is survived by six children, Steven Long (Lea) of Rogers, Mary Holmes (Ted) of Yuba City, Calif., Rose Woods (Gene) of Rogers, Jim Long of Claremore, Okla., George Long (Barbara) of Rogers, Alice Heikens (Norm) of Franklin, Ind.; one brother, Thomas Glemboski of Colchester, Conn.; 11 grandchildren — Larenzo Woods, Tim Holmes, John Holmes, Jonathan Woods, Stephanie Long, David Long, Jessica Long, Ethan Heikens, Matthew Long, James Long and John Long; and 11 great-grandchildren. In addition, she is survived by her beloved Glemboski family, Long/Oliver family (known to them as Pee Wee); and friends who are like family.

She was predeceased by brothers Frank Glemboski, Leo Glemboski, and Ed Glemboski.

There will not be a visitation or public funeral service due to the covid-19 pandemic.

Her remains will be buried in St. Joseph Cemetery in Colchester, Conn., when it is safe for the family to travel and gather.

Memorials may be made in memory of Helen Glemboski Long to the Bacon Academy, Board of Trustees, P.O. Box 67, Colchester, Conn., 06415, or to a charity of choice.
