Anna Marie Sanchez Ferdin

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and fiancée, who passed away peacefully at home.

Anna was the best grandmother anyone could ask for to all of her 24 grandchildren. Her grandchildren were her life, and she would go to the ends of the earth for each and every one of them.

She was preceded in death by her son, Manuel Gonzales.

She is survived by her daughters, Eliza Marie Gonzales, Anastacia Marie Gonzales, and Dawn Henn; her sons, Jimmy Andrew Gonzales, Aiden Matthew Ferdin, and Jimmy Brienzo; her mother and father, Maria Elena Savala and Jimmy Savala; and her siblings, Yolanda Rodriguez, Robert Ferdin, Linda Ferdin, Benancio Ferdin and Silvia Ferdin.

She was loved and cared for by her devoted fiancée of over 20 years, Juan Calderon.

Anna is also survived by many extended family members and friends who loved her deeply.

She will always be remembered as the life of the party, with laughter that filled every room and a spirit that was truly unforgettable. She will be greatly missed and forever cherished.

A visitation for Anna Marie will be held on Friday, January 23, 2026 at Witkowiak Funeral Home, 529 W. Historic Mitchell Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin starting at 2:00PM until 3:30PM with a service at 3:30PM.

In lieu of flowers memorials to the family are requested.
