Robert Lockman Obituary
Robert was born November 2, 1966, in Philipsburg, Pennsylvania, the son of Robert Martin Lockman and his second wife, Joann of Waterloo, NY, and his mother, the late Dorothy Louise (Hoover) Lockman.
Robert is survived by his son Robert Martin Lockman III and wife Rachel and their four daughters Ally Heeres, and Myah, Kira, and Leah Lockman all of Romulus, NY; brother Timothy Lee Hoover of Philipsburg, PA; ex-wife Christa (Krock) and husband Albert Gregory of Stroudsburg, PA; aunt Anna Jane Hoover of Morrisdale, PA; and cousin Gail Lynn Gruendler of Pittsburgh, PA and numerous other cousins.
Along with his mother, Robert was preceded in death by his infant son James Axel Lockman; brother Michael Lee Lockman; maternal grandparents Oliver and Sara (Watson) Hoover; paternal grandparents John and Grace (Loeb) Lockman; and cousin Bruce Edward Gruendler.
Robert attended West Branch Elementary School and several schools in New Jersey where he lived most of his childhood and early adult life. Robert worked for many years in the warehouse industry.
Robert's son Rob remembers the wonderful times he had with his dad playing hours and hours of Monopoly with Robert ALWAYS taking the car and leaving Rob to take whatever was left which was normally the dog or the boat. Robert never played any "give-away" games – Rob had to work hard to beat his dad each and every game.
In addition to being a great dad to young Rob, Robert was a wonderful friend to all who had the privilege of knowing him. Robert was committed to helping anybody he knew who was down on their luck and struggling to survive. His philosophy was "If I can help somebody improve their life, then it is worth it all." Robert will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing and loving him.
A memorial service will be scheduled at a later date for friends and family to share remembrances of Robert's life.
Memorial donations may be made to, Strange and Weaver Funeral Service, c/o Robert Martin Lockman Account, PO Box 238, 171 Deer Creek Road, Morrisdale, PA 16858.

Condolences to his family, I didn't know Rob for very long but the time we had spent together I found that he had a good heart and would give the shirt off his back to help anyone. You'll be deeply missed, RIP Rob.
