Warren Malcolm Little, 56, of Nobleboro, died Jan. 16 at Maine Medical Center in Portland. He was born June 30, 1958 in Rockland to Malcolm and Maxine Achorn Little.
Warren grew up in Nobleboro and graduated from Medomak Valley High School in the class of 1976. He served with the National Guard Reserve from 1976 to 1986. In his youth, he worked on the family farm and as a mechanic at Sulo’s Garage in Nobleboro. He also worked for Reed & Reed Construction before getting a job at Master’s Machine as a machinist in Round Pond where he worked for over 25 years.
Warren was a fun, loving person who was always ready with a joke. He loved spending time “frog fishing” with his granddaughters and shooting the breeze around the fire with his friends, always keeping the laughter going. He was a “hero” and “best friend” to his sons, they couldn’t have asked for a better role model.
He was a great handyman who did all of the work on his own home as well as many projects for whoever needed help. He liked working with his hands, building and carving wood into things his wife Penny could paint. His latest passion was growing vegetables and strawberries hydroponically in the greenhouse he built. His colorful comebacks and quick quips could make a stone smile and brightened many people’s days. He didn’t just care for people, he doted on the dogs he had throughout the years, treating them like family members.
He is survived by his wife of 29 years, Penelope Sukeforth Little of Nobleboro; daughter, Lindsay Morgan Webb and husband James of Waldoboro; sons, Matthew Robert Little and significant other Meridith Hughes of Nobleboro, and Wayne Thomas Little and fiancée Ashlyn Finnemore of Jefferson; brothers, Wayne Little and wife Becky of Waldoboro, Dr. Bruce Little and wife Nancy of North Carolina, and David Little and wife Cheryl of Nobleboro; sisters, Linda Rogers and husband Danville of Nobleboro, and Lorraine Collamore and husband Elwood of Florida; granddaughters, Chloe and Sophia Harvey of Waldoboro; and several nieces, nephews and cousins.
