Aaron Lockwood

Aaron Roy Lockwood passed away unexpectedly on October 4, 2026, surrounded by friends and family. His unexpected passing leaves behind a tremendous loss for all who knew and loved him. 

Aaron was born on January 16, 1972, in Yakima, Washington, to Frank Lockwood and Leanne Schweikert. He was preceded in death by his biological father, Frank Lockwood, and several siblings.

Aaron is survived by his mother, Leanne Bartlett; his adopted father, Michael Nigg; his children, Ciera, Aspen, Tracen, and Kyden Lockwood; as well as many extended family members and dear friends.

Aaron moved to several different cities and states throughout his childhood before settling in Spokane at the age of 16. It was there that he attended Rogers High School and met some of his closest friends—friendships that he cherished and maintained throughout his life. Spokane became home, and Aaron built a life and career in the community he loved.

Aaron dedicated more than 35 years of his life to the HVAC industry. He began his career with Barton Boys Heating and Air Conditioning and later spent many years working at Whitworth University and Accuflo Air Systems. He took great pride in his work and in the many relationships he built throughout his career.

Above all else, Aaron's children were the love of his life. He was a devoted father who loved being involved in his children's lives and activities. Aaron had many passions throughout his life including trap shooting, dirt bikes, and golf. He enjoyed spending time with the people he loved and making memories that will be treasured forever.

Aaron and his wife and children attended Greenacres Christian Fellowship for more than 17 years, where Aaron was a faithful servant of God. His faith was an important part of his life, and his church family held a special place in his heart.

Aaron will be remembered for his big heart, infectious laughter, quick jokes, hardworking spirit, love for his children, and the countless memories he created with family and friends. Though his time on earth was far too short, the impact he made on the lives of those who knew him will never be forgotten. Aaron was deeply loved and will be missed more than words can express. His memory will live on through his children, family, friends, and all those fortunate enough to have known him.

Aaron’s celebration of life will be held at Greenacres Christian Fellowship at 215 N Barker Rd, Spokane Valley, on November 7th 2026 at 2 pm.
