In all the different teams and activities I have been in, I have yet to see a leader like him. It's more like "magic" to see the way he handles the team and situations, its just unbelievable. I consider myself lucky to be a part of a team that is lead by him. All year round he works extremely hard to keep the team running and other things in FIRST. It's an incredible experience to be around people who move in the right direction. If you have been around him, you will know what I mean, I seriously have no words to describe how much of an impact he has had on me and our team.

Congratulations Cokeley, this is more than well deserved! Thank you for all that you've done.

Wayne,
Congratulations, from all I've heard and the brief time we've interacted; this is certainly well deserved.... (even if you put a "hit" out on me at nationals).

Enjoy the spotlight,
John

I have to say, besides some members of my own family, nobody has done more great stuff to make me who i am than Mr. Cokeley. he's a role model, a mentor, and a good friend to everybody. i've learned so much from being on this team, it's immeasurable. all year 'round Cokeley gives all he's got (and then some) to the team's operation and betterment, and it shows. whether he's staying at a long meeting so we can get a lot done, devising ways to improve the team, or running it from a hospital bed, he's always devoted to making our experience with FIRST the best it can be.

Mr. Cokeley,

Though I've never had the honor of personally meeting you, it's obvious you are more than deserving of this award, by the way your team members talk about you.

Congratulations!

Enjoy Wayne. You certainly define the words "teacher" and "mentor" in ways the rest of us can only hope to attain in the future. Thanks for setting the bar high for the rest of us to reach for.
