She was recently predeceased by her brothers, Norris L. Bull Jr. of Marblehead, Mass. and Lewis Bonar Bull formerly of East Lyme.

Janet is survived by her sons, James Norris Littlefield and his wife, Georgia Lee, of Niantic and David Howard Littlefield and his lifetime companion, Elene Desillier, of Old Lyme.
