Basil Leroy Smith Littlefield passed away on November 30, 2025, at his home, doing what he loved. He retired in 2020 from Bryant’s Stove Shop, where he dedicated more than 30 years of hard work and craftsmanship. Retirement gave him the opportunity to spend even more time on his passions—working on his tractor, building, repairing, and creating trucks, cars, and trikes.

Basil was predeceased by his longtime partner of over 30 years, Ann Gogan, and by his brother, Gerald Brassbridge.

He is survived by his sisters, Lucrechur Berry and Geraldine Malo, and by his brother, Brent Seekings. He also leaves behind his sons:

• Basil Leroy Smith Littlefield II and his wife Barbara

• Gerald Herschel Littlefield and his wife Sherri

• Bengie Earl Littlefield and his partner Jolene

Basil was blessed with many grandchildren.

From Basil II: Michael, Angie, and Basil III

From Gerald: Travis, Destiny, Kyle, and Hailey

From Bengie: Eleni, Tony, Kevin, and Carly

Basil will be remembered as a hardworking, beloved father, grandfather, brother, and partner whose hands were always busy and whose heart was always generous.
