1 Sep 1997 Retired from Lockheed Martin
1997-2019 Led the good life in Sunnyvale CA: Golfing (3 to 5 times/week), Deep Sea Fishing (Co-owned a boat with two other Lockheed employees from 1998 to 2012. We tried to get out at least once/week for Salmon, Albacore Tuna, Ling Cod, Flounder, Rock Fish and Dungeness Crab — season and weather permitting). Volunteering with St. Vincent de Paul Society helping the needy with food, clothing, rent assistance, emergency travel, etc.. Playing pool/snooker with some Lockheed co-workers once/week. And, of course taking care of necessary household chores, home maintenance/repairs and yard work. I finally acknowledged that some increasing physical limitations (primarily neuropathy in my feet) were preventing essential duties, and so I moved into a senior living facility, Villa Siena, on 1/7/20. They offer three levels of care: Independent Living (where I am now), Assisted Living and Skilled Nursing. My plan is to spend the rest of my life here — the food is good, the people are friendly and caring, and there are plenty of activities to fill the time.
2020-Present Leading the carefree life in Mountain View CA.
Carl Remembers . . . “ My most memorable thing from OCS was the people and the wonderful things we did for each other in that awful environment. To my knowledge, there were no ‘ Buddy Flushers ’ in Third Squadron. ”
