Mana Lois Little, 89, former long-time resident of Dawson Springs, KY died Sunday June 3, 2012 at the Woodlands in Farmville. She was born July 30, 1922 to Ed and Bessie Dillingham.

Mrs. Little lived her whole life in Dawson Springs until she moved to Virginia in 2003. She worked 25 years for Kentucky Utilities in Dawson Springs. She was an active member of the First Baptist Church and was active in community events. She loved to travel to visit her daughter and grandchildren wherever they were stationed with the US Navy.
