Bobby Leonard Lockwood

LOCKWOOD, Bobby L October 31, 1929 – July 30, 2014. Born in Cushing Oklahoma, past peacefully in his sleep early July 30 following a valiant battle with cancer. He will lovingly be remembered by his wife Maggie Cox and her six children; Larry (Summerland BC), Ed (N Van BC), Carol (Edmonton AB), Len (W Van BC), Wayne (Lillooet BC) and Peter Zablotny (Onoway AB). Bobby is also survived by his daughter Mara Lockwood of Maui, Hawaii and her daughter, Lanikai (Walton) McMullen. Bobby was predeceased by his son, Dana Lockwood, in 1977. Bobby had a great love for the outdoors and was an avid waterman. He always had a boat of some kind and enjoyed fishing, water skiing and camping with his family. He built a beautiful home in Yosemite California, near Bass Lake, where he spent most weekends with his family before he retired. Bobby loved his 5th wheel and after retirement he travelled across the USA, Canada and Mexico several times. He loved easily, laughed often, and was a man of his word. A celebration of life will be held on August 23rd, 2014 at 11:00AM at Henderson’s Tea Room, 45901 Victoria Ave, Chilliwack BC. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Canadian Cancer Society.
