We mourn the loss of our night shift supervisor, coworker and friend Chris Long.  Christopher Travis "CT" Long, 46, of Asheboro, died Tuesday, April 2, 2024 at Moses Cone Hospital in Greensboro from a stroke.  He was a hard worker and a great leader, technician, mechanic, electrician, plumber, and a Jack of all trades. Any job that needed to be done, he'd do it.  CT enjoyed fishing, hard rock and country music, and his trucks.  He was an employee since 12/8/18.  His shift recognized his passing with a baloon release.
