    Norfolk Naval Shipyard’s Locksmith Shop Lead Mechanic Susan Epperson has been working as the shipyard’s locksmith for 11 years. She originally intended to work at the shipyard for a year to save money to purchase a house on the beach with her husband. “I worked here a year to the date and saved up all of our money. We were going to close on our beach house on Tuesday, and he passed away on Saturday. So that kicked that plan in the head.” said Epperson. “Because I had my job at the shipyard, I was able to take care of myself, so I've been doing this ever since.” Epperson plans to retire from NNSY in a few years.
