Cinderella Smith

Cinderella Smith, 86, a resident of Weleetka, Oklahoma passed away Friday, May 9th, 2025 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Cinderella was born January 2nd, 1939 in Henryetta, Oklahoma to Annie (Fields) and Jay Haynes.

Our loving mother, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend had a heart of gold. If you knew Cinderella, you would agree-she loved everyone she met, and everyone loved her in return.

Known affectionately as "Miss Cindy" to many, her sense of humor left a lasting impression. As someone recently said, "She made the room laugh every time she walked into one." Cindy was a proud member of Hickory Ground #1 Church, where her parents and kinfolk before her instilled in her a deep faith and reverence for the Creator.

With Cindy around, laughter was a constant. In her younger years, she enjoyed gardening-especially growing roses. She worked at the Liberty Café, later provided home health care, and eventually cared for children in the Weleetka community.

Cinderella loved watching western classics while sipping her daily coffee-she called it "Caffeine & Cowboys."

She will surely be missed. Cindy made friends everywhere she went and left a little love on every path she crossed. Family was always her greatest love. She often said, "Without family love, you are not strong." So love each other, and keep getting stronger.

We love you, Cinderella. We will miss you always
