Priscilla Wilhite Obituary

Priscilla Wilhite

Priscilla was born on May 10, 1936, in Ocate and went home to the Lord on Friday, February 27, 2026, at the age of 89.

Priscilla is survived by her sons Cory and Charlie; daughter Joyce; daughter-in-law Valerie; son-in-law Ken; grandchildren Hannah, Savanna, and Eli; and her brother Pepe.

She is preceded in death by her beloved husband Bill; son Johnny; sisters Patsy, Donna, and Sharon; and brother Pancho.

Priscilla grew up in Ocate and Las Vegas. While attending New Mexico Highlands University, she met the love of her life, Bill. Together they built a beautiful life centered around family, faith, and hard work.

Bill and Priscilla opened their home to everyone there were no strangers at the Wilhite house. Priscilla became a second mom to many and made everyone feel welcome and loved.

Together they owned a flower shop in Albuquerque and found joy in bringing beauty to others. She also worked in the grocery industry, where she formed lasting friendships and enjoyed serving others. Later in life, she retired to devote her time to her grandchildren, who were the joy of her life.

Priscilla was kind, generous, strong, and full of warmth. She loved laughter, family gatherings, and making memories with those she loved most.

Mom/Grandma, you will forever be in our hearts. Thank you for your love, strength, and the memories that will live on forever. Rest peacefully, Priscilla, Mom, Grandma, Prissy your love remains with us always. God bless you.

Services will be held in Albuquerque on April 11th, 2026 from 1:00-4:00 PM at New Beginnings Church of God.
