[Mr. B 2851]

Thanks Mike for posting this. Mays was one of the best people I have ever known. Mays put the Inspiration into FIRST. He loved robots and engineering. He loved the students and they loved him back. His impact on our team and our alumni is profound. The saddest part is all of the future FIRST members who will only get to know Mays through the stories and images that live on. Unfortunately that will be horribly pale in comparison to the reality that was Mays Overton. He was a great mentor, a great person, and a great friend.
