Runaway Bay ~ Lana Antoinette Wildey, 84, went to be with our Lord Monday, March 9, 2026, in Runaway Bay.
Funeral Service is 2:00 p.m. Saturday, March 14th, at The Rock Church in Bridgeport with burial at Oaklawn Cemetery.
Tim Fleming to officiate.
Lana was born on May 20, 1941, to Giusseppe (Joseph Matz) and Betty (Kluber) Mazza in Proviso, Illinois. She was united in marriage to William Wildey on May 5, 2012, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Lana was a member of The Rock Church in Bridgeport and Heart of Worship Church in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In April of 2008, Lana became an Ordained Minister of the Assemblies of God International Fellowship and started a "Real Talk Real Lives", a television show focusing on women and the healing of body, mind, and spirit. Lana appeared on Real Sisters for 5 years as a sister of Christ, praying with callers, and she most recently appeared on the Christian talk show, "God's View," along with co-host Charlene Baktamarian and Priscilla Pruitt. Lana published a book called "Instant Scripture", a handbook for overcoming the worries and cares of this world through the Bible. She was the President and founder of Majesty Media and owner of Movie One Theatres, a nationwide chain. Lana had a huge heart and generously supported many local and national charities benefiting animals, the unborn, veterans, the hungry, and spreading the Gospel to missions around the world. She was a beloved mother, grandmother, and friend to many who will miss her dearly.
She was preceded in death by her parents.
Those left behind to cherish her memory are her husband of 13 years, William Wildey of Runaway Bay; her daughter, Samara Garner of Colorado; her granddaughter, Shylo Raw of Colorado; and a host of friends.
