Anni Weber Wilson, 91, passed away on Thursday, September 23, 2021.

A native of Heidelberg, Germany, Anni moved to Asheville in 1948 after marrying her late husband, Herman John Wilson. She was a daughter of the late Anton and Maria Baumeister Weber. In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Christina “Tina” Wilson Carroll, and sister, Inge Weber Dietz.

Mrs. Wilson worked as a foreign language teacher at Erwin High School for many years. She was also a member of the Basilica of St. Lawrence.

Music was very important to Anni. She enjoyed singing and played both the piano and accordion beautifully. She also very much loved flowers and tending to her garden.

She is survived by her daughter, Heidi Taylor; niece and nephews, Doris Bishop; Richard and Linda Dietz and Ronald Dietz; a number of additional generations of nieces and nephews; and many extended family members in Germany.

The graveside service for Mrs. Wilson will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday at Ashelawn Gardens of Memory. The Very Rev. Roger Arnsparger, VE, will officiate.

  5. So sad to hear of Frau Wilson’s passing. I took three years of her German classes at Erwin and she was always nice and interesting, with her stories of growing up in Germany, sometimes bringing her accordion to play for the class, and being tolerant to students who were less serious than they should have been. Love and peace to her family and friends.

  6. Dear Heidi, you and all the family are in our prayers. We loved Anni. She was one of best! She was family and a friend to me for many years. I will never forget our late night talks. I can still hear that sweet laugh and see that beautiful smile. I know she was a wonderful Mother to you and Christina but she stepped in to be there for Inge’s family too when she went home to Heaven. She was a doting daughter to Oma and Opa. Basically, Anni was just an all around great person. I just regret I didn’t get to spend more time with her. Heaven gained another angel.

    We love you Heidi,

  17. I was thinking of Frau Wilson last week, remembering how lucky I was to have such a great teacher. Her lessons are still with me today, 38 years later. She made a difference.
