Christine Locke

On July 4, 2020, Christine A. Locke, loving wife, mother and grandmother, passed away at the age of 72, in Glendale, Arizona. Christine (Chris to all who knew her) was born May 12, 1948 in Long Island, NY to George and Bertha Main. She grew up with 4 brothers and was definitely the care taker of her family. When Christine was 15 she met the love of her life, Fred. A few years later they were married and soon after found themselves in Arizona where they had 2 boys. Chris was blessed to be a stay home mom for many years and was very involved in everything her boys did from school and sports. Her biggest pride and joy, however, were her three grandsons. She doted on her grandkids from day one and could not have been more proud of the young men they have become. Christine was proceded in death by her father, George, her mother Bertha, her step mother Jennie and brother Denny. She is survived by her husband of 52 wonderful years, Fred, her sons Fred (Kim), George (Amy) and her 3 grandsons Bodhi, Wyatt and Garrett as well as her brothers Arnold (Jeannie), James (Jane) and Jerry (Cathy) and several nephews and nieces who meant the world to her. A viewing/visitation will be held at Menke Funeral Home in Sun City, Arizona on Sunday July 12 from 2-5pm with a service to follow. She will be laid to rest at the Veterans Memorial Cemetery on Monday, July 13. In lieu of flowers please make donations to the Wounded Warrior Project.
