We are a Lockheed Martin family! My son, Tom,
went to work at Lockheed right out of the Navy. At the time, I lived in Redwood
City, California, and there were layoffs at the electronics company where I
worked. Tom urged me to apply at the plant in Sunnyvale in 1986 when the
Challenger exploded. I was with the company until 1998, when I retired. My son is now head manager of the submarine
division at Sunnyvale. His son, Ryan, is a submariner also he was also an
officer! They work in the same buildings. Tom’s daughter, Marissa, is a buyer at
Lockheed Martin in Orlando. The company has been very good to our family,
especially when the young ones were in college!
