Janice Clements

Janice Celia Rylant Clements (78), of Birmingham, Alabama passed away after a hard fight on June 26, 2025, surrounded by loving family. She was a VERY special, giving and loving mother to Laurie Boyd, grandmother to Alex Hammond and Skylar Boyd, sister to Jacque Carlisle, aunt to Geoff Carlisle and Jenny Carlisle Carrington, and cousin and friend to so many more. Her unconditional love touched so many people throughout her whole life. She was a happy lady that always had a smile for any and everyone she met! She graduated from Woodlawn High School. She was a rural carrier for the U. S. Post Office for over 30 years, and has been retired for many years. She was also a delegate for several years for the Alabama Rural Letter Carriers’ Association. She was a member of the Magic City Red Hatters, as well, and a true Auburn fan. She always had her baggie of chocolates in her purse, made the best homemade fudge and lasagna, and called her sister, Jacque, every night before bed (even if it was at 2:00am-300am). She will be dearly missed by everyone she touched!! Good night and sweet dreams mom, for the last time. Your smile and unconditional love will definitely be missed by all!! Janice is preceded in death by her father, George Marshall Rylant, and her mother, Irma Lee McDonald, and her grandmother, Nannie Mae Goodwin Rylant.

Janice is survived by her sister, Jacque Carlisle (D.L), daughter, Laurie Boyd, grandchildren, Shawn Alexander Hammond and Skylar Hope Boyd, nephew Geoff Carlisle, niece Jenny Carlisle Carrington (Dick Farris), great nephews Carlisle Carrington and Eli Carlisle, and good friend Bobby Shirley.
