NORTHEAST HARBOR – Ashleigh M. Littlefield, amazing daughter of John and Wendy (Haynes) Littlefield, died unexpectedly May 30, 2010, at home. She was born July 30, 1991, in Bangor.

She graced the Mount Desert Island High School stage in several musicals, concerts and plays, with Mount Desert Island High School drama and Acadia Community Theater.

Before she started her dream of becoming a cosmetologist, she worked for two summers at Neighborhood House summer camp, where she had been a camper for the previous 10 years. As a young girl, Ash attended Union Congregational Church of Northeast Harbor. Ashleigh had a wonderful and loving family and recently had an amazing vacation with them, where they shared many laughs and memories. She enjoyed spending time on Long Pond at her family camp and hanging with her friends. She loved watching the Golden Girls and could get anyone to sit and watch it with her. She enjoyed all horror movies and loved the mystery involved with ghost hunters. She loved music and had attended several concerts with friends and family. She enjoyed drawing, painting and cake decorating, which she learned through her Senior Exhibition process at Mount Desert Island High School In addition to her parents, whom adored her, she is survived by her special little brother, Ryan Littlefield; little sister, Haley Littlefield; her maternal grandparents, Nana and Boppie, Dana and Lucy Haynes of Northeast Harbor; her paternal grandmother, Nancy Littlefield of Glenburn; her uncle, Dan and aunt, Becky Haynes, who were also her godparents; her uncle, Jeff Haynes, all of Northeast Harbor; her aunt, Cathy and uncle, David MacDonald, of Brewer; her uncle, Pat and aunt, Amy Littlefield, of Hermon; her uncle, Steve and aunt, Darlene Tracy, of North Carolina; special cousins, J.
