Bernice was the daughter of William Henry and Hettie Sue Freeman Burgin. She married Vernon Locklear on Oct. 2, 1946 in York, SC. Their marriage produced three daughters and five sons.

After moving with her husband and children from Pembroke to Lenoir, NC in November 1961, she gave birth to her two youngest sons. She was a retired homemaker and furniture worker, and a beloved mother and grandmother.

If she didn't have something good to say about someone, she wouldn't say anything. She truly followed the "Golden Rule."

***NOTE: Rev. Julius R. Hall was one of the pastors that spoke at grandma's funeral. My grandma admired him tremendously, and he is also buried at Woodlawn.
