Russell Bittle

Visitation for Russell Bittle will be held on Saturday, June 2, 2018 from 3-5 p.m. Russell's life was nothing short of spectacular. Just to be in his presence was sheer excitement. He was the best at everything he did from baseball to football, you just never knew with him, but you always knew it was going to be a blast!!! On May 20, 2018, Russell Stephen Bittle, ran that last home run and made it across the home plate. He won his battle against cancer and knocked it out of the park!!! Until they meet again at the Golden Shores, Russell temporarily leaves behind his wife, Christina Charpentier-Bittle, who loves, adores and cherishes every moment that God gave them and continues to give them through their children and grandchildren. He is also survived by his beautiful, five, yes, five, brown-eyed "gals", Amanda Kay (Percy), Deonne Nicole (Josh), Michaela Gabrielle, Sara Elizabeth and Victoria Grace. Then there are the grands, five of those too; Kyleigh, Carson, MaKya, Mylee and Tre. We often refer to ourselves as the Griswold's lol… Now, the two that started this very special family were Ernest Lee and Daisy Lee Bittle, of Munford. Russell was the baby, and if you didn't believe it just ask his mama. He has two older siblings, a brother, Gerald Bittle (Joy), of Talladega and Ernestine Bittle Smith (Paul), of Munford.
