Obituary of Donald Perry Locke

It is with heavy hearts that the family of Donald Perry Locke, beloved husband of Karen (Ketchum) Locke announces his passing, which occurred with his wife by his side on Friday, October 14, 2016 at the Saint John Regional Hospital. Born on July 26, 1956 in Halifax, Nova Scotia, he was the son of Thomas Locke and the late Anne (Trefry) Locke. Don worked in sales as an employee at Eddy Group Limited in Saint John, New Brunswick. He enjoyed all types of sports, with golf and hockey being his favourites. He was a past President of Hampton Minor Baseball and spent several years coaching baseball and hockey for each of his three sons. Don always had a big heart for children and he will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him. Don is survived by his wife Karen, three sons, Ryan Locke (Angela) of Summerville, NB, Jonathan Locke (Ronalda) of Calgary, AB, Benjamin Locke (Abi Reinhart and her daughter Dylan) of Saint John, five brothers, Robert Locke (Yvonne) of Victoria, BC, Thomas Locke Jr. (Becky) of Hampton, Timothy Locke (Krista) of Hampton, Murray Locke (Pauline) of Calgary, AB, Kirk Locke (Lorna) of Manitoba, two sisters, Ruth Kilpatrick (Brian) of Upham, NB, June Fowler (Francis) of Upham, granddaughter, Madison, mother-in-law Marilyn Ketchum, several aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews. Don was predeceased by his Mother, Anne and father-in-law, Paul Ketchum. Arrangements have been entrusted to Reid’s Funeral Home (506-832-5541), 1063 Main Street, Hampton, NB. Don felt the love and support of family, friends and the community during the benefit in February and considered it a celebration of his life. In keeping with Don’s wishes, there will be no visitation and a private funeral service will be held at a later date. For those who wish, remembrances may be made to Hampton Minor Hockey.
