Joyce Whisenant, born in 1946, died peacefully, surrounded by those she loved on September 4, 2019.

A renaissance woman, Joyce’s passions led her into education, counseling, real estate, and small business ownership. She loved the Sandia Mountains, autumn in Albuquerque, and the ceaseless magic of hot air balloons sailing above the city. Her truest calling and greatest passions were motherhood and being Gigi to her grandkids and great grandkids.
