Denise Little

September 29, 1952 — March 5, 2026

Denise Little, born on September 29, 1952, departed this life on March 5, 2026. Her legacy of love and faith will forever resonate in the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing her.

Denise was a devoted mother to her children, Alexander Little, Jr., Paris Joseph (Winfred), and Jonathan Little. She was a cherished grandmother to five grandchildren: Alexander III, Dontez, Faith, Autumn, and Dominic. Denise’s family was the heart of her existence, and she found immense joy in creating cherished memories with them. Whether through family gatherings, quiet conversations, or special occasions, Denise exemplified the essence of connection and love.

Her faith was a guiding light in her life. Denise held a profound and personal belief in Jesus Christ, which shaped her daily actions and interactions. She believed in the power of prayer, the necessity of love, and the significance of nurturing a deep relationship with God. Denise was not just a believer; she actively shared her faith, using her life as a testament to encourage her children, family, and friends. She passionately served as a minister of God’s Word, spreading messages of hope and faith through her prayers, her words, and the kindness she extended to others.

Denise found joy in many simple yet meaningful activities, whether it was singing praise as a member of the singing group Euphony, which allowed her to share her love for music, or spending quiet time reading her Bible and praying. She enjoyed peaceful moments spent in solitude, reflecting on her faith and building a closer relationship with God. Her love for baking cakes was another expression of her caring nature, as she regularly shared her creations with family and friends, fostering sweet moments around the table that will be fondly remembered.

In addition to her passions for faith and family, Denise had an appreciation for life’s pleasures. She had a wonderful sense of style, often seen as a fashionista who loved shopping and putting together beautiful outfits. Denise cherished visiting various places, whether they were bustling shopping stores, serene churches, or scenic spots like Sandy Cove and the Blue Mountains.

Denise Little leaves behind a remarkable legacy of love, faith, and inspiration. She is preceded in death by Lee E. Datts and Lezetora Goodman. She will be profoundly missed by her family and all those whose lives she touched with her generosity, warmth, and unwavering belief.
