Missing FIRST Alumni

[BandChick]

With sadness and concern in our hearts, we must relay news of a missing member of our FIRST family. Riley Branstrom, an alumni of FRC Team 1089 was last seen in Freehold, NJ on Monday, May 6th. If you have any information about Riley, please call the number above or the East Windsor Police Department at (609) 448-5678.

Riley is one of those people that brings life and happiness into the room when he walks in. He's a well-known volunteer in NJ FTC and a scorekeeper for NYC FTC events. On our team he both designed t-shirts and buttons and was a member of our drive team. At FRC competitions you can always find him in a silver sequin fedora with a knit lobster attached and a fake mustache. He’s a great designer, a wonderful collaborator, and was a huge asset to our FIRST Robotics team for many years.

All we can hope for is that Riley is safe and will be home with his family and friends again soon.

We'd appreciate if you would share our Facebook post, retweet to your Twitter, or reblog to your Tumblr.

Please spread the word and help us find our friend!
