Well...reading these 3 posts has meant alot to me, and i think it is my time to post my thank yous.
First off I would like to thank our wonderful advisors for the dedication they have, sacrifices they make, pain they endure, and the love they give no matter what. The last four years of my life have been shaped by these people and I owe alot of my character and knowledge to a group of four people: Dave and Cathy Beck, Jack Tusman, and Rich Kressly. These are the type of people who you will remember for the rest of your lives and keep in touch with. To these four i would just like to say thank you for everything, it could not have been any better.
Now on to my fellow team members, it is you guys who make us what we are. There are no labels that are put on a team at the start of the year. Everything we have, we earned it all and we just have to remember that. You guys have made the last four years of my life wonderful and this years group is one that I will never forget. Our team this year has exemplified the meaning of FIRST in my eyes, and I could not be more proud to be the president of any other organization. There is a drive on this team, where people do things because they want to, not because they are forced to or feel they should to make someone else happy. You guys all do things because you want to. That is one of the greatest qualities of our team....Thank you very much for always being there, and for cheering even when our robot was having a very good streak. I don't think any of you guys truly realize how much you mean to me...or how much this team means to me.
To Rob, wow thats all I can say wow. Look at what we have done, its simply amazing. Think of the team four years ago, it was a squandering unproductive unit and look at it now. What we helped happen is something that most people never see, and we can't forget that, sure we may not have done well in FL, but I am so proud of the team and of you. Thank you for the last four years, it has been wonderful and without regrets.
Finally, the last four years of my life have been so much better because of this program, the people I've met, the things I've learned, the experiences I've gone through are things that will be with me always. Thank you for everything. I'm going to miss the team next year but I know that it rests in good hands and I will always be proud to say I am a member of Team 103.
