Mom’s first priority was always family and she really got to enjoy all her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She also loved her flowers and took great pride in her Hollyhocks. She was always working in her garden. Mom enjoyed when company came over to visit and play cards and you could never leave without at least a meal or some of her delicious baking and tea.
Mom liked travelling with Dad as long as at least one foot was within two feet of the ground. They would visit friends and relatives in the northern states and western Canada; renewing many relationships.

Laurie was born May 3, 1947 in Saskatoon, along with twin sister Lee. He was raised on the farm east of town and started school the first year of the bus run into Davidson from the Trenton area. Laurie was in the school’s largest beginner’s class, part of the baby boomer generation. As Laurie grew up he became increasingly interested in sports, which he excelled at. Davidson Cardinal baseball and Super League curling were two of his favorites. Laurie was also proud to have been on the 1962 football team when DHS won South Saskatchewan in their level. After high school, he graduated from Voc Ag at the U of S, and then married Valerie Hanson in 1970. Together they farmed with brother Morley and had two children Todd and Sheri. Many happy years were spent on the farm, but Laurie battled addiction, which led to selling the farm and separation from his family. Following difficult years, rehab brought reconciliation and celebration. Laurie was now back with his family and new partner Glennys McNabb. Laurie had another chance and was proud to become a grandfather to three special grandsons, Avery, Easton and Zachary. Good times were spent with family at the lake, on the golf course and by the pool. Laurie and Glennys had family gatherings where everyone was together, enjoying each others company and catching up on what everyone was up to. When Laurie was not working, or on the golf course, he could usually be found fussing with something in the yard, or working on some unique item to celebrate the season. He was a man who liked to keep busy and things had to be just right. Laurie will be dearly missed by his loving partner, Glennys McNabb; mother, Hazel Lockwood; son, Todd Lockwood; daughter, Sheri (Brian) Erickson and family Avery, Easton and Zachary. Laurie also leaves to mourn his sister, Lee Bristow (Lorence Peterson) and family; brother, Morley (Jeannie) Lockwood and family and Glennys’ family, Rick McNabb and son Levi and Janice (Dave) Lloyd and sons Corey and Casey. Laurie was predeceased by his father, Donald Lockwood and brother-in-law, Dale Bristow. Laurie’s true character was very evident during his courageous battle with cancer. He never complained and kept an upbeat attitude towards every new situation that was thrown his way during his hard fought journey. He took control of every situation, never wanting to burden anyone else. Laurie’s attitude made it easier for everyone that loved him to cope with his untimely death. Laurie will be truly missed. A celebration of Laurie’s life was held on Tuesday, September 14, 2010 at the Davidson United Church with Rev. Diane Eurig presiding. Hanson’s Funeral Home of Davidson was in care of arrangements
