Congratulations to Ellery Wong, our next Unsung FIRST Hero.

[Greg Needel]

I have known Ellery for a long while now and not only is he a great robot builder he also builds lives. The time and effort he puts into the program for the kids is unparalleled in my opinion. If you really want to see the good that this xcat has done all you have to do is look on any of the current or past student's faces; that light in their eyes is proof that he and team 191 are doing very well.

To a very deserving friend of mine, congratulations Ellery!

Congratulations Ellery, you are hands down one of the most dedicated & best FIRSTers I know. You are very deserving of this & more. When I thought about a list of people I would want for my all-star mentoring team. Your name was the first one I came up with.

Congradulations! This is a great honor and truly belongs to people like you. Thank you for all you do!

[Hiteak]

Congratulations Ellery, you really deserve this honor. Youreally helped me and my team out this year. I dont know where we would be without helping us start off at the begining of the team formation.

Ellery is the glue that holds the X-Cats together. He practically lives at the site constantly maintaining it. He's the one who helps contact the teams in the area when they need help and he is the one who takes the lead on the off season projects. The team would be in disastrous shape without him.
Congrats Ellery.

Congratulations Ellery! Not only do you affect those you mentor first hand, but also anyone that meets you. Just talking to you at FLR '05, Ruckus, and FLR'06 has had a profound impact on my life. It has been an honor to know you as well as compete against you in the past and I know that you will continue to be an inspiration to me and others in the future.

Congratulations, Ellery! Your wonderful advice is going up on the wall at work (which is getting filled with great advice to live by, from fellow FIRSTers). Thank you for sharing your passion with all of us!

[Tim Delles]

Congrats Ellery. You deserve this completely.

[Alex Cormier]

[Al Skierkiewicz]

Congratulations, Ellery.
Your dedication to the teams of Rochester shows. When Greg and Ed can speak highly of you, you know you are doing something right. Keep up the good work!

[rachakate]

Yay! Ellery! Ellery's such a dedicated person. I'm so happy to see him now "Sung".

[Adrienne E.]

Congrats Ellery! I can't believe it was almost 8 years ago that we were rookies on 191 together. You've been a complete inspiration and amazing mentor in my life. When I think about all the people that helped me stay on track and become the person I am today you are one of the few on the very top, and I know I'm not the only person that can say that about you. I am so happy you are being recognized! See you in Atlanta

When I first submitted Ellery to be the UFH I had no idea that his lovely wife Rebecca (pictured next to him. They were married last summer. You should all congratualte them for that as well) would be our Woodie Flowers nominie this year(Ellery was our nominee last year). Now I wish I would have waited so maybe I could submit husband and wife to be the UFH (every FIRST couple should have his and her Woodie Flower awards )
