  Mr. BURGESS. Madam Speaker, I proudly rise today to honor the memory 
of Dr. Robert Minturn Lockwood III, a respected, active, and beloved 
member of the North Texas community.
  Known as ``Doc Lock'' to friends, employees, and patients, Dr. 
Lockwood provided exceptional radiological health care in Denton, Texas 
for 52 years, and his legacy will persevere for years to come.
  Dr. Lockwood was born on August 28, 1922 in Philadelphia, PA. A 
lifelong learner, he attended Harvard, graduated from the University of 
Pennsylvania Medical School, and twice earned the Physician's 
Recognition Award in Continuing Education.
  In 1956, Dr. Lockwood arrived in Denton, Texas, and co-founded the 
Family Radiology Clinic. Dr. Lockwood was active in the Denton County 
Medical Society, and served as the President of the society for a 
number of years starting in 1966. Dr. Lockwood also belonged to 
multiple medical societies, including the American Medical Association, 
Texas Medical Association, and the Texas Radiological Society. After 
his first wife's death, Dr. Lockwood established Ann's Haven Hospice, 
which provides nonprofit home health care regardless of a patient's 
complex condition or ability to pay.
  While Dr. Lockwood was a devoted medical professional, he also had 
many hobbies and interests. Described as a jolly man with an excellent 
sense of humor, Dr. Lockwood was an avid reader, fossil collector, 
gardener, birdwatcher, poet and playwright. He loved music, language 
and the arts, and was beloved by all who knew him.
  Dr. Lockwood is survived by his wife, Sandy; his children, Ben 
Lockwood, Millie Lockwood, Rachel Cross and her husband John; and his 
granddaughter, Anna Morshedi and her husband Grant.
  Madam Speaker, it is with great honor that I rise today to remember 
Dr. Robert Minturn Lockwood III, for his remarkable legacy and service 
to the community of North Texas. I am proud to represent such an 
outstanding citizen from the 26th District of Texas in the United 
States House of Representatives.
