Chaney B. Schoenherr

Chaney B. Schoenherr, 39, of Carlsbad, New Mexico passed away on Wednesday, June 22, 2022. Chaney was born on April 24, 1983, in Carlsbad, New Mexico to William and Judy Jensen.

Visitation is scheduled from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM, Sunday, June 26, 2022, at Denton-Wood Funeral Home. Funeral services are scheduled for 10:00 AM, Monday, June 27, 2022, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with Bishop Marcus Bluth officiating. Interment will follow in Carlsbad Cemetery, Carlsbad, NM. Denton-Wood Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.

Chaney grew up in Carlsbad, and graduated from CHS in 2001. She then went to Las Cruces, NM and attended NMSU for two years. She worked for several years as a human resource specialist for Eddy County, and then began working for Cimarex. She then worked for Vanessa Green’s medical office. Chaney had her two daughters in Corbyn in 2005 and Kaylie in 2007, and they became her whole world as she raised them as a single mother. She made detailed Halloween costumes for them and threw intricate parties for them. Chaney had an eye for design and what looked good, and her family would also consulate her for her opinion. She loved baking and designing cakes, and used her talents to express her artistic nature as well as a side business. Dessert was her favorite part of any meal. She will be remembered for her loving nature, strong will, determination, and decision-making abilities. Chaney will be deeply missed and never forgotten.   

Chaney was survived by her fiancé, Jeff Clifton of Carlsbad, NM; two daughters: Corbyn Schoenherr and Kaylie Schoenherr, both of Carlsbad, NM; parents, William and Judy Jensen of Carlsbad, NM; three siblings: Justin Jensen of Stroudsburg, PA; Shelsey Polito of Artesia, NM; Davin Jensen and wife, Jazmin of Carlsbad, NM; eight nieces and nephews; and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.
