However, I don’t see a reference to FIRST in his wiki page, so I must have been mixing things up. It looks like the inventor of the Segway (and founder of FIRST) is still alive: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean_Kamen
It would seem Woodie Flowers is who i’m thinking of. I’m glad the other two are alive though. It’s a shame about the owner, but i also i feel like that death was easily avoidable
