It was with sadness that Les Amis de Beauford Delaney learned of the passing of Richard A. Long. He died on January 4, 2013.
Richard was a great friend of Beauford and has contributed numerous times to the richness of this blog:

He was a donor for the Beauford Delaney Gravesite Project and recently supported our application for funding for a second Beauford Delaney biography and the creation of a catalogue raisonné of Beauford's art. He was always generous with his time and knowledge. It was a pleasure to have gotten to know him.
