Mya Michele (Shires) Crothers

Mya Michelle Shires Crothers, 55, of Hinton, Oklahoma, was born on April 12, 1967, in Watonga, Oklahoma. She is the daughter of Jack A. and Patsy Imogene (Doss) Shires. She went to be with her Lord and Savior on Friday, June 10, 2022, at St. Anthony’s Hospital in Oklahoma City, with one of her childhood best friends by her side.

Mya attended Watonga Public School from kindergarten to graduation in 1985. Mya married Steve Coon in 1996. From that union, she was blessed to receive a stepdaughter, Jamie. Mya enjoyed taking care of her precious dog, Ellie, who she called her pride and joy. But Mya will be remembered most for her fiery spirit and for her love of driving around the countryside, listening to loud rock and roll.

One brother, Randy Neely of Ponca City, OK, one nephew, Michael Neely and wife Ashley, of Oklahoma City, and two great-nephews, Jacob and Taylor of Moore, OK.
