BERLIN – Dorothy “Dot” Littlefield Sloan, 92, died peacefully Sunday, May 21, 2017 at The Center for Living & Rehabilitation of Hoosick Falls. Born in Flushing, Queens, NY on August 19, 1924, she was the daughter of the late Frank and Catherine Ryan Heaney.

She was employed as a telephone operator for Taconic Telephone in Berlin for many years. She later was a teacher’s aide at the Cherry Plain Elementary School for over 25 years before retiring.
She was a communicant of Our Lady of the Snow in Grafton and formerly of Sacred Heart in Berlin where she was a member of the Altar-Rosary Society and Sarah’s Circle. She was active with the Order of Lay Carmelites.
Dorothy enjoyed swimming at the Recreation Center in Bennington, VT, Irish dancing with her friends in Pittsfield, MA and loved to drive her red car until recently.
She was the wife of the late Willard Littlefield and Edward Sloan; beloved mother of Anne M. Maxon of Berlin, Cathy A. Coughlin of Rotterdam and the late Mary Lou Mastropole; adored grandmother of Christopher and Matthew Maxon, Kelly Albers, Mark Mastropole, Michelle and Danny Malas, Casey Coughlin and 11 great grandchildren; sister of Ann Purcell of Harrisburg, PA and the late Frank and John Heaney and Mae Schroeder. She is also survived by several nieces and nephews.
