Correna J. Cox

Correna J. Cox (86) passed away in Columbus, OH on October 2, 2024. She was born in Kessler, West Virginia on August 2, 1938 to Clyde and Pearl (Brown) Cline. 

Correna was a loving mother. She gave faithful care and love throughout her life. She did work in the bank industry but her passion was to be “A Willing Vessel for God.” She invested in this desire as a faithful member of the Northwest Bible Church in Hilliard, Ohio.

She is preceded in death by her parents; her husband of 50 years, Estile Cox; Her grandson, Jeremiah Cox; and her siblings, Marilyn Wolfe and Tim Cline. Correna is survived by her sons, Clyde (Carol) Cox and Delynn Cox; her grandson, Levi Cox; her great granddaughter, Elizabeth Cox; her siblings, Ruth Ann Evans, Tom Cline and Delois Gowin; her nephews, Todd Evans, Clyde T. Cline and Sean Evans; her niece, Thyri Hawkins, along with several cousins. 

Correna loved participating in church activities. One of her favorites was the NW Bible Widow’s Group. The ladies, together, enjoyed playing WII bowling where she was a ferocious competitor. She was truly one of the strongest women of faith in her Lord, whom she loved and served.
