N. Mazel Littlefield

Norman Mazel Littlefield, Jr., age 75, died at his home in Las Vegas, Nevada on January 15, 2015. He was born September 12, 1938 in Salt Gulch, Utah to Norman Mazel and Clella Hall Littlefield. He joined the US Navy in 1955 when he was only 17 years old. He was able to travel to many parts of the world. On October 29, 1956 he married Deanna Henderson in Tropic, Utah.

Mazel moved to Tropic, Utah after his father was drafted into the Army. Although he wasn't a man of many words, he loved his family and sometimes worked three jobs to keep a roof over their heads. He raised his family in Henderson, Nevada and Tropic Utah. He later moved to Louisiana with his two brothers. Many memories were made there before he moved back to Utah, then to Las Vegas after his wife died.

Mazel was a born leader who rose to the top of every job. He worked at Stauffer Chemical in Henderson, Payne & Keller in Louisiana and Salt Lake and Las Vegas Paving in Las Vegas. He had a quick wit and always liked to joke, tease and show love and kindness to his family. He will truly be missed.

Survivors include four sons and three daughters: Kelly (Anne); Kathi (JW) Walizer; Kayleen (Darrell - deceased) Shakespear; Kerry; Keith (Jaylene); Kody (Julie); Karlin; 26 grandchildren and 21 great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his one infant son, his parents, two brothers: Denny and Jay and one sister, Marie Zohner.
