Sue Ann Lockard- Chairman and CEO

Sue Ann and Marc met when Sue Ann was a senior and Marc was a junior at Somerville High School.  Marc tries to paint Sue Ann as the “older woman,” (as if 19 days really count!) Sue Ann graduated from Texas Woman’s University in 3 years with a degree in elementary education.  Marc and Sue Ann were married on August 8, 41 years ago, an she actually received her degree one week later.  They lived in married student housing at A&M, while Marc finished the last two years of his degree and Sue Ann taught at Sul Ross Elementary in Bryan ISD.

They lived in Austin, Houston, The Netherlands, Slidell, LA. and Houston again, before moving back to College Station in 2005.  They have three

children Jim, (Aggie, naval aviator, director of engineering for L&W, and husband of Brittanie Gulzow Lockard, PHD candidate at A&M), Melissa, (Aggie, attorney, currently professor of construction law at A&M, mother of her two grandchildren, Connor 4 1/2,and Carolina 2 1/2, wife of Ralph Daigneault who is in-house counsel for L&W,) and Lauren (equestrian, Wake Forest Demon Deacon, Aggie (masters), project management office director for L&W, baker of great cookies, wife of Sean Collins, living in Willmington, Delaware).

Sue Ann taught elementary school for eighteen years, but was primarily a stay at home mom when her kids were younger and school age.  She worked directly at L&W for about five years primarily in events planning and HR in the late 90’s, but has been involved in the background since the beginning.  She is currently the CEO of L&W.  She also serves on the Dean’s Advisory Council for the College of Education, and Marc and she are members of Christ United Methodist Church.  She loves to read, garden, sew, paint & craft, and she particularly enjoys mowing her yard on her fabulous zero turn mower.  Connor and Carolina truly do “light up her life,” and Marc and she both love every minute they spend with them.
