In Memoriam: Locke Wallace

| St. Charles Borromeo

Locke E. Wallace Jr., a long-time, well-loved member of St. Charles Borromeo Parish, died last Thursday, August 24, 2023, at the age of 93. He and his wife, Patricia, regularly attended 11:15 AM Mass for many years. They also provided many concerts in our church, with Locke singing classics from the American songbook with Patricia accompanying him on the piano. Here’s a sample. He will be greatly missed. A memorial service will be scheduled in the near future.

Eternal rest grant onto him, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
