Maria Ana (Rivera) Beall

Maria Ana "Ana" Beall

July 30, 1962 - August 12, 2026

Maria Ana "Ana" Beall, aged 64, passed away peacefully on August 12, 2026, at her home in Estancia, New Mexico. She leaves behind a legacy defined by her boundless creativity, independent spirit, and fierce love for her family and community.

Ana was a woman of endless passions and talents. She possessed a brilliant, curious mind, always eager to learn, create, and master new skills. An exceptionally gifted artist, she won numerous awards for her artwork. Her eye for beauty and color also translated into a long, highly successful career as a hairstylist, where she proudly earned the title of "Best of the City" for hair colorist in Albuquerque. Beyond her art and career, Ana took immense pride in tending to her ranch, caring for her two horses, and nurturing her gardens. Her horse, Ash, held an incredibly special, therapeutic place in her heart.

Above all her hobbies, Ana loved people. She was wildly independent, courageous, and a true fighter, yet her heart was incredibly kind and soft. She was deeply protective of those she cared about and would truly do anything for anyone. Before her passing, she frequently shared how blessed she felt to have beautiful, lifelong friends. She also shared a deep bond with her service dog, Mojo, who faithfully helped her through difficult times. A vital and active member of her community, Ana dedicated her life to caring for others and helping anyone in need.

Her proudest achievement, however, was her family. She is survived by her devoted husband, Cory J. Beall Sr.; her son, Cory J. Beall Jr., and his wife, Kendra; her grandson, Elijah; Cory Jr. and Kendra's expected baby; and her daughter, Reyana L. Beall.

In accordance with Ana's wishes, the family will hold a private, small memorial service to celebrate her remarkable life and love.
