On June 25, 2025, our family lost a beautiful soul—our fun-loving, joy-spreading, and endlessly kind Claudia "Netta" "GiGi" "Auntie Nette" Kinnard. She passed away peacefully in her home, leaving behind a legacy of laughter, love, and unforgettable memories.

Born on September 25, 1960, to the late Claudie Myles Kinnard Sr. and Dena Kinnard, she was one of six siblings. She is survived by her brothers and sisters: Rev. Claudie "Derby" Kinnard of Mt. Vernon, TX; Robert Kinnard of Claremore, OK; Rev. Bobby Kinnard of Claremore, OK; Debbie Kinnard of Princeton, TX; and Karen Jones (Elder. Mack Jones) of Cedar Hill, TX. She was a cherished aunt, a loving godmother to her godson Keelan Graham, and a second mom, cousin, and best friend to many.

She graduated from Claremore High School in 1978 and later earned her associate's degree in Accounting and Business from Claremore Jr. College. Smart, driven, and full of life, she blended professionalism with an unmatched sense of humor and warmth.

She had a deep love for the Dallas Cowboys—win or lose, she rode for her team with pride. Whether she was kicking back with family, planning a spontaneous getaway, or bringing the party to life with her magnetic energy, she was for sure to be dressed to impress, smelling good, and she made sure everyone felt welcomed and loved. She never met a stranger and always answered the phone with a laugh, a joke, or the words you needed to hear.

Her presence was larger than life and her absence leaves a silence only love can fill. Though she has taken her final trip, her legacy continues in the stories we share, the laughter we remember, and the joy she brought to each of our lives.

Rest easy. Heaven just got a whole lot louder, funnier, and more fabulous.
