Maria Oakley Obituary
She was the beloved wife of Karl Oakley for 50 years and was one of 12 children born to the late Concepcion and Agustina Campos. Maria will forever be remembered by her family and friends. Left to cherish her life and contributions are her loving husband, Karl Oakley; son, Steven Oakley (Monica) and daughter Emily Oakley Ramirez (Alfredo); grandson, Jonathon Oakley, and granddaughters, Jamie Oakley, Natia Oakley, Dominique Ramirez and Bianca Ramirez. In addition, her beloved siblings who will continue to treasure their lives together are her brothers, Encarnacion Campos (Lupita), Agustin Campos and Antonio Campos (Lucy), and sisters, Ignacia Nunez, Modesta Campos, Enriqueta Quiroz, Juanita Cortez, Lupita Bosserman (David); and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by a son, Roger Eric Oakley; her parents; a sister, Sofia C. Silguero; and two brothers, Florentino Campos and Anastacio Campos.
Maria touched the lives of many people - family, friends and strangers - with her generosity. She maintained her trademark of always doing what's RIGHT to help those in need.
A Mass of Resurrection was celebrated by Father Francisco Acosta on Saturday, Feb. 26, at 6:30 p.m. at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church.
The family would like to express a special thank-you to the nursing staff at Valley Regional Medical Center in Brownsville, who provided great care to make Maria comfortable.
