With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Claty Mines of Birmingham, Alabama, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Claty left this world on November 27, 2025 at the age of 64, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. Family and friends can send flowers and/or light a candle as a loving gesture for their loved one. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Claty Mines to show support.
As we bid Claty farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Claty is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her parents, Thomas Smitherman and Bernice Mines Smitherman.
