Joan Magil

Joan Magill

Joan Magill passed away in Denver on September 1, 2022, at the age of 59.

Joan was born in Idaho in 1963 to Jim and Betty Magill. She grew up in

Washington state and graduated from Seattle University with degrees in Nursing

and Psychology.


Joan wanted to help those with PTSD and she earned an advanced degree in

Psychosocial Nursing. She practiced in her field for 35 years, treating and

advocating for veterans and civilians alike who faced past trauma.


Joan had a passion for life and living. She loved the outdoors and good food, and

was accomplished at putting together gourmet camping trips with friends long

before “glamping” was popular. Her enjoyment of nature included all seasons and

she was an avid skier, runner and mountain biker. Joan enjoyed a good ghost

story and traveled to explore ghost towns. She loved all animals and cared for

rescue birds. Those who spent time with Joan will remember her beautiful smile

and compassionate spirit. Joan was preceded in death by her parents and is

survived by her sisters, cousins, aunts and uncles.


Joan will be remembered at a memorial service on October 5th. Donations in

Joan’s memory may be made to the Rocky Mountain Refuge or a local animal

rescue.
