Dennis Scott DeLong

Mr. Dennis Scott DeLong, age 74, of Cumming, GA, went home to be with the Lord on April 1st, 2025, following an extended illness.

Born on May 26th, 1950, he was the fifth of seven sons born to the late Thomas Lee and Lona Bell DeLong.

Dennis was a Master Carpenter and spent his life working with his hands. There wasn’t anything he couldn’t build and he was the person you called if you needed something fixed. He was a man of few words so when he spoke you listened. He loved his wife and family fiercely and was always there to lend an ear or a helping hand.

Dennis is survived by his children, Charles (Debbie) DeLong, Kevin (Abby) DeLong, Beverly (Matthew) Trotter and three beautiful grandchildren, McKenzie Halsey, Gracie Smith and Avery Cole Smith. He was preceded in death by his parents, his loving wife of 38 years, Lynn DeLong and brothers, Harold DeLong, Virgil DeLong, Odean DeLong and Melvin DeLong.

Funeral services will be held Friday, April 4, at 11:00 a.m. at the Ingram Funeral Home Chapel with Rev. Troy Milford officiating. Interment will follow at Mayfield Baptist Church Cemetery.

The family will receive friends at the funeral home Thursday from 2:00 to 8:00 p.m. and Friday from 9:00 a.m. until the time of the service.
