I worked with Pete for many years on various USN programs. He brought integrity, discipline, and much needed humor into so many projects. We give thanks for his years of service to his country and Lockheed Martin company.

To Pete's kids and family - I am very sorry to hear of Pete's passing. I worked for and with Pete for many years and he was a great mentor to me as a new manager under him. Those who would meet Pete for the first time were sometimes taken back with his forthright and matter-of-fact, no-nonsense way. But once you got to know him well, you realized he was one of the most decent and likable people you'd ever want to meet. We stayed in touch periodically after Pete retired. I'm happy that our paths crossed and am now sad that he's gone as he made a strong, positive impression on me through the years. This is a great picture of Pete - it's as I remember him - always smiling, chipper, and full of life. Rest in peace my good friend.

I'm very sorry to hear about Pete's passing. I worked for and with Pete for many years. I considered him a great friend and stayed in touch after he retired. Those who met Pete for the 1st time were sometimes taken back by his forthright approach and frankness, but once you got to know him, you realized he was one of the most honest, decent people you could ever meet. I was fortunate to have had him as a friend. This is a great picture of Pete - it's as I remember him - smiling, chipper, and vibrant. Rest in peace my good friend.
