Sal graduated from Lafayette High School and was a member of the TZT fraternity. From there, he pursued his education at the University at Buffalo where he received a BS in Electrical Engineering. He finalized his studies by obtaining a Masters Degree from Syracuse University.
Sal’s career spanned 40 years in the technical field. He held engineering assignments and management positions at Rome Air Development Center, IBM Federal Systems Division, Loral, and Lockheed Martin. Sal was responsible for the design, development, performance, and follow-up/upgrade activity of several military programs.
Those who knew Sal were very familiar with his wonderful sense of humor, his love of learning, teaching, nature, skiing, and traveling. But the greatest love of his life was his family. Nothing made Sal happier than celebrating life milestones and holidays with his loved ones.
