Christopher James Littlefield

December 25, 1951 ~ July 10, 2023
Resided in:
Cumberland, Maine
Cumberland- Christopher J. Littlefield, 71, of Prince Street, died unexpectedly at his home on July 10, 2023 of natural causes.
Born on a Christmas day in 1951 in Portland, Maine, he the son of the late George W. and Kathryn A. (Cook) Littlefield. Chris attended local schools, graduating from Cheverus High School in the class of 1970 and then earned his Bachelor's Degree from the University of Southern Maine.
Chris was a man who loved life - and it loved him right back. He was a dedicated worker at the State of Maine, where he served as a Regional Supervisor until his retirement in 2013. But work was just a small part of his life. Chris was a man of many interests. He was an avid sports fan, particularly of the Boston/New England teams, and could often be found cheering them on from his favorite armchair. He was also a loyal member of the Val Halla Country Club, where he enjoyed golfing. When he wasn't on the links, Chris could be found tending to his beloved vegetable, flower, and herb gardens or challenging himself with a crossword or sudoku puzzle. His love for family was paramount, and he cherished every moment spent with them.
Christopher leaves behind a legacy of love and laughter that will never be forgotten. He is survived by his loving wife of many years, Linda Littlefield of Cumberland; his devoted daughter Rebecca Littlefield and her soon-to-be husband Seth Katzman of Marblehead, MA; his cherished siblings Mary (David) Chick of Portland, Patricia Littlefield of Portland, and Donald (Lindsay Sirois) Littlefield of Portland; many nieces and nephews.

Linda & Rebecca, so sorry for your loss. Chris will be missed. He was a great guy!
I am so sorry to hear of your families’ loss. I worked with Chris for years back on Lancaster Street. He was on the interview team that hired me as a clerical support. I worked for him as a VR Counselor and then as Regional Manager. I really enjoyed working with Chris. He used to share such wonderful stories of Linda, Becca & his dog; he was very entertaining & had a great laugh.

Mary and family, my condolences on Chris passing.

Linda and Family: A mutual friend in Biddeford only recently informed me of Chris’ untimely passing. No words can truly express my heartfelt sorrow for your loss. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts during this difficult time.
Mary and family. My prayers are with you at this time. I’m sure you have many special memories of Chris that will keep him close until you meet again.
My brother, Michael, and Chris were classmates at Sacred Heart Grammar School back in the late 1950s and early 1960s. If my recollection is correct, (which is questionable) Chris and Mike were, often, paired as Altar Servers at Sacred Heart Church.
God bless Christopher and bring him into the happiness and joy of your Home. Amen.
As neighbors of Chris. We watched as he carried his old and sick Jack Russell terrier with love and loyalty, on walks around the neighborhood This, we believe , speaks volumes about the kindness and character of the man.
Linda, and family, we are very sorry for your loss.
