Joan Marie Balenzano Obituary
With solemn reverence, we commemorate Joan Marie Balenzano of Spokane, Washington, born in Sprague, Washington, whose life came to an end on August 17, 2024 at the age of 83, leaving behind cherished memories. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid Joan Marie farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Joan Marie is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was predeceased by: her husband Nick Balenzano (Lamont); and her nephew Paul Wilson. She is survived by: her grandchildren, Jon, Nancy Balenzano (Chris), Susan and Byron Wright; and her siblings-in-law, Mary and Don Wilson.
