Chlodine Hulsey Bittner passed away peacefully on Saturday January 11, 2020. She was 95 years old and a resident of The Village at Heritage Oaks in Corsicana, Texas. Born in Murchison, Texas in 1924, she was the daughter of the late George and Mary Ethel Hulsey.

She worked as a telegraph operator for Cotton Belt Railroad before marrying Robert Earl Bittner in 1946. Together, they raised their children and operated the Corbet Grocery Store in Corbet, Texas. Her bookkeeping skills lead to working in the Navarro County Schools Superintendent’s Office, the Corsicana ISD, and the Rice ISD from where she retired. Chlodine was a faithful member of First Baptist Church, Corsicana, and a fifty year member of the Eastern Star. She was a devoted and loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend and she is home now with her heavenly Father and many loved ones who have gone before her. Chlodine is predeceased by her parents, her husband, twin brothers Hulen and Dulen Hulsey, sister-in-law Ruth Elaine Bittner, and many friends.

She was blessed with a large family and with many days of caring for and loving them. Chlodine will be dearly missed by all those who love her. Family members are grateful for the compassionate care she has received from Heritage Oaks and Bristol Hospice. The nurses and staff describe her as a “sweet lady” whose favorite color was purple. In lieu of flowers, a memorial donation to First Baptist Church Corsicana, Texas would please her and the family.
