Being as I was Jimmy's former and only wife, I will always have that

special place in my heart that only he can have. But please first allow

me to respectfully correct our childrens names that appeared in here

today. They are Sgt. Corey M. Locker USMC and Leighann Margaret Beatrice

Locker Regan (Margaret Beatrice after Jimmy's mother). With that being

done, let me express my condolences to ALL of his many children, their

mothers, and his grandchildren. Lord knows our lives will not be the

same without him in it. Last but not never least, I especially want to

convey my sympathy to his BEST BUDDY/brother, Mark Case. To quote a

popular reference, youse guys were like PEAS AND CARROTS, never hardly

seen one with out the other close by some where. I will have to say,

youse about always bring a warm heartfelt chuckle whenever youse are

remembered together. I am sure you will be the one that misses him the

most. I can honestly say, life in Rhode Island will not be the same

without Jimmy in it. And he well always be in my heart.

To hear you are gone comes as such a shock.. I don't remember a time growing up when you weren't around. We have been reflecting on the memories and so many things come to mind. Especially how grandma-ma would tell the neighbors she would have you abduct there hubcaps and the big boulders you planted on her front porch.. You never did things the conventional way, always the Jimmy/Markie way.. but that is what set you and him above the rest.. Made you special in your own right. We will miss you and your name will always escape our lips.. COREY and LEIGHANN will carry your name for ever.. As you have entered into the realms of heaven I know that mom is there with you and gave you the biggest kiss. You always were her favorite son in law and nothing will ever change that. With love and rememberance......
