Oxner, Catherine OCEANSIDE -- Catherine Oxner, 79, and Oceanside resident since 1969, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on Saturday, January 4, 2014. She was born to the late Clarence and Helen Barr on December 29, 1934. Growing up on a farm in Vermilion, Alberta, Canada, Catherine developed a love for horses and interest in farming which carried on throughout her life. Catherine attended and graduated from Vermilion High School in 1953. She entered the School of Nursing at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, where she proudly earned her R.N. degree in 1956. In 1961, she moved to California where she pursued her nursing career at the then new Laguna Beach South Coast Community Hospital with her dear friends Jean (Jim) Hinkson and the late Lois Murphy. Catherine married the love of her life and is survived by Robert Oxner of Waco, Texas. She married Robert in Vermilion in 1962, became a Naturalized American Citizen in 1964 and received the Certificate of Appreciation from the United States Navy in 1980. Catherine is also survived by her brother, Stewart Barr of Vermilion Canada; two sons, Scott (Tracy) Oxner of Valley Center, and Robert (Julie) Oxner of Orinda; two grand- children, Jackson and Allison. She also leaves behind numerous loving relatives and friends both in the US and Canada. During her Oceanside residency of 44 years she was an active member of the Cub Scouts, Little League, and El Camino High School Boosters' Club. Catherine was a long time member of the North Coast United Methodist Church choir and enjoyed regular luncheons with her church friends. A small service will be held at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery in San Diego at 11:30 a.m. on Monday, January 20, 2014.
