Lee's Story
It's 2023 and I'm 61 and retired from Boeing where I helped build spaceships. I got a good pension and 401K. So I should be OK the rest of my life.
I got married to my beautiful bride in 2010 and we are happy and living in Hawthorne California. We have a daughter that lives in Chicago.
I went to Syracuse University from 1980-1984 and got a degree in mechanical and aeronautical engineering. I'm really proud of it because college was very difficult for me.

I liked Zorba's Pizza at midnite, and I'll always appeciate Father Borgononi leaving the Newman center open for me whenever I wanted (they had MTV too!!). But, college got me a job in Southern California near the beach. So, it worked out in the end.
Workplace
I worked for Boeing Space Systems for 33 years and then retired.
Misc
