Thought I may post the section of the essay I contributed just to give anyone who doesn't know Rich like I do some insight on how much he deserved the award.

"Rich made me feel right at home during my 3 years with Dawgma. Right from when we started up in 2006, I would have never thought that my first period English teacher would get me involved with the great program that FIRST is. As a transfer into LM my sophomore year, Kressly found me and got me involved, and I am ever greatful for it. He took me under his wing during my time at Lower Merion and I made sure I put in the time to show him how much I appriciated it. Rich drove me not only to be a better student, but a better person as well. There wasn't a meeting I would miss unless school got in the way, Kressly always made sure of that. Education came first no matter what, and its helped me immencely during my first year in College, somewhere I probably wouldn't be if I never met Rich. He truly gets what the program is about and passes it on to all of the members, no matter how involved they are."

Thanks for a great 3 years at Dawgma Kres. I will always be available to any team thanks to your inspiration.
