Anna Wilson Obituary
Anna Maria Wilson, 83, of Scottsbluff, Nebraska, passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by her loved ones on Thursday, October 16, 2025. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:30 a.m., Thursday, October 23, 2025, at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church in Scottsbluff with Fr. Joseph Thambi as Celebrant.

Anna was born May 29, 1942, in Kingsville, Texas, to Jose and Marta (Cantu) Figueroa. She was the third of four children. Anna spent her childhood in Kingsville before marrying and moving to Galveston, Texas, and then to Scottsbluff, Nebraska.
Anna had a generous heart and would give to complete strangers. She was a loving grandma who loved hard and with all she had, giving her grandkids everything from shoes to garlic sausage, blocks of Velveeta and lemon meringue pies as gag gifts, spoiling them as much as she could.
Anna was a faithful member of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church since arriving in Scottsbluff. She loved to work, bake cookies, tend her flowers, and spend time with her family.
Survivors include her four daughters, Sandra (Leopoldo) Zubia of Amarillo, TX, Barbara Rodriguez of Houston, TX, Gloria Peña of Englewood, CO, and Cecilia Peña of Gering, NE; thirteen grandchildren; and 39 great-grandchildren.
Anna was preceded in death by her parents; siblings; husband; and one great-grandchild.
