English term

for very long

"If she dies, I wonder if they will remember her for very long."
I have tried to translated this as "Si elle meurt, je me demande qu'ils se souviennent d'elle pour tres longtemps." But I am not sure that it sound right in French. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you.
