It was always a good day when you worked with Tom at Lockheed. His skill, knowledge and cooperation were appreciated but it was his personality that made the day. He always had a good story to tell and a unique way of telling it. He left a legacy behind at Lockheed when he retired. I was proud to call him a friend and colleague. I miss him Rest in peace Tom, you deserve it.
