1943 – 2016

It is with a heavy heart that I communicate the sudden passing of my husband and the light of my life – Dennis Antony Lockie on February 20, 2016 from complications that developed following surgery .

Dennis was born in London, England on October 11, 1943.

Although deeply saddened, I am comforted knowing that he is reunited with his family that he loved dearly and with whom he crossed the pond in July 1957 when he immigrated to Canada from England with his father Thomas, mother Violet and brother Tom who have predeceased Dennis.

I am blessed to have spent over 30 years with a man who was compassionate, caring and never failed to brighten my day with warmth and love.

Dennis enjoyed a 40 year career with BC Gas – formerly Inland Natural Gas prior to his retirement in November  2008 . Dennis in his retirement continued to indulge his compassion for cars and travel.

May all who knew Dennis treasure your memories as I shall treasure mine.

Dennis is also survived by his son Tom and his family, sister in law Carole, mother in law Billie Thomson, brother in law Kelly Thomson, nephews, nieces and his family in England and South America.

May you rest in peace – my love. Until we meet again. Your loving wife Donna.

At  Dennis’s request there will be no formal service. He will be interred at a later date in Oliver, BC in a private ceremony where he will join his father , mother and brother who undoubtedly have greeted him with open arms.

In lieu of flowers, donations made to a charity of your choice in Dennis’s memory would be greatly appreciated.
