Milton Pittman, age 80, of Sheffield Rd, Rose Hill, NC died Saturday night, January 29, 2022 at home after having fought a lengthy battle with lung cancer.
Born October 9, 1941, he was the last surviving child of the late Edrect and Ella Carter Pittman and was also predeceased by a daughter, Diane Nazworth and grandson, Alex Matthews and nine siblings.
Survivors include his best friend and loving wife of 49 years, Lavonne Boggess Pittman of the home; his daughters, Michelle Coombs and husband, Roger of Wallace; Dawn Noelle Pittman of Garden City, South Carolina, Darlene Corder of Ohio and Jean Volk and husband, James of Jacksonville, Florida; his "special" son, Adam Kornegay of Rose Hill; grandchildren, Dennis Matthew, Jr., Jessica Stephens, Kelly Nazworth, Dalton Teachey, Mason Teachey, Tiffany Teachey and Ayden Suits; great grandchildren, Elaina White, Emma White, Ella White, Ariel Atkinson, Oaklyn Teachey, Samantha Teachey, Paisley Teachey, Cayden Johnson, Deliah Johnson, Tabitha Stallings, Jason O'Brien, William Stephens, Brentley Stephens, Ryleigh Stephens, Anna Matthews and Aubree Nazworth; step grandchildren, Madelyn Coombs and Robert Coombs; numerous nieces, nephews, extended family and friends that loved Milton dearly.
A native of Duplin County, Milton retired from Nash Johnson and Sons Farms where he drove trucks delivering newly hatched bitties to farms. He was an avid lawn mower and small engine repairman by hobby and was an outdoorsman who loved fishing, fellowshiping with family and friends and always enjoyed laughing at a good joke. He enjoyed the simplest things in life, but his greatest joy was family, especially his grandchildren, who were the apples of his eyes. Milton enjoyed being outside in God's beautiful nature mowing grass, fishing, and pulling the grandchildren around the yard with his lawn mower and trailer. With his outgoing personality and jolly spirit, he would always make you laugh. Never meeting a stranger, Milton could talk to anyone and knew almost everyone in Duplin County. He was also affectionately known as "Collard Head" by some of his family members. Milton will surely be missed, but treasured memories of him will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, February 5, 2022, 4:00-6:00pm at First Baptist Church, Wallace, NC.
*Married March 8, 1958 in Duplin Co, NC to Joanne Futrell (divorced).
