Margaret Dolores Mulkey

November 27, 2020 after a period of declining health. Born in Hopewell, TX on May 6, 1936,

she was the daughter of the late Johnnie and Ruth Locke (Bryant). She was working for Hughes

Aircraft Company in California when she met Jesse, known as “Glenn”; they were married in

1960 and he was the love of her life. Since Glenn made his career in the U.S. Marine Corps,

Margaret had the opportunity to travel all over the US and in Europe. One of her favorite places

was London, where she met Christine and Terry, with whom she kept in touch throughout her

life. She would tell stories of all the adventures they had and the different military events she

and Glenn attended. She and Glenn were members of White Oak Community church in

Maysville, NC and later, Greater Philadelphia Church of Christ, in PA, where she had friends

especially June, Judy and her sister Mary in NC, and Patti, Karen, Marybeth, Ruth and Amby in

PA. She was devoted to her family and friends, served as caregiver for her late husband to the

end of his life and was known by everyone for her generosity.

She was predeceased by her beloved husband USMC Colonel Jesse G. Mulkey in 2011. She is

survived by her brother Aubrey Locke of Abilene, TX; 2 children: Sherri L. Todd (Richard J.) of

Bremerton, WA, and Richard G. Mulkey (Joanne K.) of Lexington, MA; 7 grandchildren:
