I had already read all the threads on their trying time before ordering mine.

Every time I see it, it is a reminder that I should enjoy life and take care of myself and my daughter because we're the only ones we have. There's no reset button and you can't start over. I constantly see people behind me obviously talking in awe about the WindRestrictor. To me, it's kind of a way to always keep him with us.

Thank you to Stephen and his family for influencing peoples' lives more than they probably know. And thanks to Michael for starting this thread.

& you said it very well.

Leigh...it's the least all of us can do who added enjoyment to our lives...and cars. Robert was really a role model on how one lives our lives...if u knew him, u would know how deeply all of us admired his short lived life.

You guys are incredible. I'm so glad to be a part of this great forum.

As we were packing up all of our display stuff and getting everything ready for Vegas today I could not help but to think of how happy Robert is right now looking down on us. There is no where else on earth he would have rather been then on the way with his company to Vegas to meet alot of you. As we celebrate his life this week (24th) let's keep that in mind. You folks helped him have a chance to live his dream before he passed.
You should have seen the look on his face when he pulled up with his brand new SKY last March. We went to Florida to set up with Mallett at a national show there the week he got it and it's all he could talk about for 3 days.

So now after the tears have cleared writing this to you my friends I say congratulations to young Robert, my beautiful baby brother. Congrats on your graduation into eternal life and a life on earth well spent. Your legacy will endure through us and all of your friends here!

Every time I look at my WR I think of Robert. I didn't know Robert either but knowing you and your family I know he was as compassionate as you all are. Your WR are outstanding and I know your brother is smiling knowing his dream is continuing on. Have a safe trip and a wonderful time in Vegas. T.

I just happened to stumble upon this thread ... sorry i'm late in getting in on the avatar tribute.
This also has given me a solution for replacing the etching i lost when my top was replaced.
Sounds like Robert not only is an angel in heaven but was an angel on earth .....
To the Pennington Family--i know the neverending ache in your heart for i walk in those shoes.....there are no words
To Robert--please tell my son Jonathan that i miss him and that i love him, always & forever .....

[Wind Restrictor]

It was truly amazing in Vegas. We got to meet many of you that spoke to Robert and shared memories. Thank you all so much for your kind words and efforts in keeping his memories alive. God bless you all....

Admin, it's ok to unstick this if you want. I suppose this was done for the month of April to honor his passing. Robert would prolly not want to stick up the forum with a thread about him.


But! While it's stuck. I want to show you guys the latest release from King Penn Industries Inc. Roberts company. (windrestrictor)

Check out this video. It's the product that Robert was working on just before he passed last in April of 07. The staff is carrying on his legacy and making him proud for sure. He sure was a genious! Congratulations Robert. We love your new product!
