Wife of N.C. Marine copes with husband's suicide
By LINDELL KAY, The Daily News of Jacksonville
Jacksonville, N.C. — Katie Bagosy had been a Marine wife long enough to know when two men in uniform showed up at her front door it meant her husband wasn’t coming home again.
But she expected the visit while he was on one of his deployments, not after he went for a mental health session.
Sgt. Tom Bagosy, 25, died May 10 after shooting himself during a confrontation with base police on McHugh Boulevard.
His wife saw it coming a long time before it happened, she said, but felt helpless to stop the self-destruction of the man she loved.
Bagosy joined the Marine Corps in 2004 and married Katie in 2005. They have two children.
He was deployed to Iraq in 2006 and promoted to sergeant in 2007. He joined Marine Corps Force Special Operations Command in October 2008 and was deployed to Afghanistan. During his tours, he earned several medals, including two Combat Action Ribbons and a Marine Corps Good Conduct Medal, according to information from MarSOC.
