Thomas C. Locke

LTC Locke was a great leader. He always treated me with respect and appreciation. I remember visiting him at his house with LTC Tobin when I heard of his health. He was a great asset to the JAG corps and the 8th MLC. My best to the Locke family...Sgt Swisher

To the friends and family of Thomas C. Locke: I worked for Tom from 1998 through 2000. He was a voice of reason, a moral compass, and a truly honorable man. He reminded me of my father (d. 1991). Tom lectured me often on the importance of moral authority, and that to gain respect from others, you must live a life worthy of receiving it. He did just that. Tom demanded fairness, honesty and integrity from his clients, adversaries and co-workers (and, he was sometimes not much appreciated for...

Being married to a twin has been an interesting adventure, but nothing prepared me for what it would be like to watch my husband's look-alike go from the picture of health to sickness and eventually death. Thankfully, we know where Tom is, and we KNOW that
he will be waiting first in line to greet us when we meet again in Heaven. I will miss his jokes, and I will truly miss his phone calls when he pretended to be Floyd, asking, "Where are you? You were supposed to pick me up at...

Uncle Tom was my Dad's identical twin brother. I remember when he would come to visit us, and I would always call him my, "other Daddy," because they looked and sounded exactly alike. When I asked my real Dad to do something, they would both answer me, trying to trick me, and I really couldn't tell them apart. I will miss that. When Uncle Tom would always call us, he would tease me. Eventually, I could tell it was really Uncle Tom. See you in Heaven!
Love,
Sam

You are in our thoughts and prayers... love,

My father was a wonderful man. He was loving, kind, caring, compassionate, generous, smart, funny, hard working, and anything else you could ask for in a father. He always wanted the best for my mom, my brothers, and me. He was also an innocent man. He did not deserve to have lung cancer. He never smoked is his life. But, he was a fighter. When his doctors predicted he would only live six months to a year, he fought day in and day out. He lived three year to the day. He was diagnosed with...

My brother Tom was a tremendous help to me when I needed it. He and my wife Jackie were fighting cancer at the same time. Tom was a source of encouragement for her when she was depressed and needed someone special to talk to. He was always ready to surprise her with something humorous. I am sure he is still making her smile even in heaven. Tom was a person who would take a dream and make it a reality. I am going to miss him. He taught me that life is short and also precious. From the very...

MY BROTHER THOMAS WAS A GREAT INSPIRATION TO ME OVER THE PAST THREE YEARS. HIS LOVE OF LIFE AND WILL TO FIGHT SUCH A LONG BATTLE ONLY INSPIRED ME TO LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST EACH AND EVERY DAY AND TO TELL THE ONES YOU LOVE HOW YOU FEEL OFTEN. I WILL ALWAYS BE PROUD OF HIS ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND WILL PASS ON TO MY GRANDCHILDREN GREAT AND WONDERFUL STORIES OF MY BROTHER THOMAS.
A PIECE OF YOU WILL ALWAYS REMAIN IN MY HEART. I WILL LOVE YOU ALWAYS. SISTER DONNA LEE

Ginny:

I never had the pleasure of meeting Tom, but he must have been a good, kind, and smart man. After all, he chose you to share his life. I am so sorry that your family has this loss to face. Please take good care of yourself and your family. Thinking of you,
