Mildred Marie Corns Pollitt, age 90, passed away on Saturday, November 23, 2019, after a long battle with Alzheimer’s disease. A native of Lewis County, Kentucky, Mildred was born on November 22, 1929, to George and Ethel Corns. She later moved to Paris, Kentucky, where she spent most of her life. She was a devoted member of Hilltop Wesleyan Church, where she taught Sunday school and served on the board. She was also a gifted quilter, a doll collector and an excellent cook. After rearing six children, Mildred went back to school to obtain her GED and also learned to drive—even taking up a local paper route for the Citizen-Advertiser. Her greatest joys, however, were her six children, five grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
In addition to her parents, Mildred was preceded in death by: a son, Keith Allen Pollitt; her husband of 54 years, Robert G. Pollitt; a sister, Thelma Tucker; and three brothers, Everett Corns, James Corns and Howard Corns. She is survived by five children: Danny Pollitt, and wife, Brenda, of Flemingsburg, Jackie Pollitt, and wife, Sharon, of Paris, Terry Pollitt, and wife, Charlotte, of Bossier City, Louisiana, Bonnie Pollitt Jolly, and husband, Billy, of Paris, and Penny Pollitt Hillard, and husband, Bobby, of Frankfort; five grandchildren: Darrin Pollitt, Jason Pollitt, Bradley Pollitt, and wife, Lee Anne, Marshall Jolly, and wife, Elizabeth, and Christopher Jolly, and partner, Rickey Barnett; three great-grandchildren: Michael Pollitt, Bethany Pollitt and Jonathan Pollitt; five sisters, Hazel Browning, Shelby Purnell, Lora Lamar, Lillian Thomas and Judy Black (Earl); and a brother, Bobby Corns (Judy).
Visitation will be held from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. Monday, December 2, with the funeral at 11:00 a.m. Tuesday, December 3, both at Hinton-Turner Funeral Home. Interment will follow at Evergreen Memory Gardens. Rev. Marshall Jolly and Rev. Ronn Pelfrey will conduct the service. Pallbearers are Billy Jolly, Marshall Jolly, Christopher Jolly, Bradley Pollitt, George Bills and Jerry Allen. Honorary pallbearers are Jason Pollitt, Darrin Pollitt, Dr. C. Ray Young, Jesse Crockett, Steven Crockett and the staff at Robertson County Health Care Facility. The family extends its thanks for the excellent care provided by the Robertson County Health Care Facility and Hospice of Hope.
