Anna Dora Pérez Osle

Anna Dora Pérez Osle, born on February 28, 1924, in Vaughn, New Mexico, passed away peacefully on June 25, 2025, in Bosque Farms, New Mexico. A beloved daughter of the land, Anna was the first in her family to pursue higher education, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts from the New Mexico College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. A dedicated legal administrative assistant at the District Attorney's office, she balanced her professional life with a deep love for ranching. Anna cherished her family above all else, from her immediate loved ones to distant relatives.

She took joy in the laughter of her daughter, Michelle Monique Dereta and son-in-law, Bruce, as well as the playful spirit of her grandchildren, Sabré, Isaiah, and Elijah. Her heart expanded even further with each great-grandchild, who brought light into her life--A.W., Payton, Sienna, Jaxxon, Sloan, Bruce, Odin, Maverick, Thomas, Walker, and Loïc. Anna was preceded in death by her parents, Ramon and Sara Pérez; her brothers, Albert Pérez and Ramon Pérez, Jr.; and her sisters, Carmen Alonzo and Alice Pérez.

Each moment spent with her family was a treasured memory in the tapestry of her life. She was an avid sports fan, with a special love for basketball, and rarely missed an athletic event involving her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. A devoted NMSU Aggie supporter, she proudly cheered on her team with pride.

Known for her zest for life, Anna enjoyed working hard, savoring great food, and embarking on thrilling adventures. Her infectious spirit and unwavering dedication will be remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
