For the next 20 years, Gerald’s career in the Navy resulted in moves throughout the world. Then, for 28 years, they lived in Gurnee.
The Lockarts moved to Vandalia in 2010.
They are the parents of two children: son, Timothy; and daughter, Linda (deceased). They also have two grandchildren, Brandon Lockart of Vandalia and Erica Kaplan of Shoreview, Minn.
The anniversary will be celebrated with a family dinner on Sunday.
