Mary Jo Littlefield (nee Lacy), 93, passed away peacefully on Sunday, October 29, 2023, after a brief illness. She was preceded in death by her husband Ward Littlefield in 2017.

She was surrounded by family who reflected on her career as a professional educator in Virginia, her love of Martinsville as a native, and being a long-time member of both Christ Episcopal Church Martinsville and the Daughters of the American Revolution. She loved gardening and her pets as well as the birds and creatures who frequented her backyard buffet.

A private family ceremony will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her memory to the Martinsville SPCA.

Norris Funeral Services, Inc. and Crematory, Martinsville, VA is serving the Littlefield family.
