That sucks........last time I saw him he looked to be in good health and spirits. A class act, RIP.

Went to the Rayburn's visitation last night, he obviously touched a lot of people, not only in our hobby, but Poplar Bluff and the surrounding area, as there was a huge crowd on hand paying their respects.

Very sad. Rayburn was indeed a very down to earth and humble man and treated everyone the same, that of a friend. Rest in Peace Rayburn.

Super guy. Huge Heart and loved talking about the Corvette, Motion history and Rosen. Specifically about how the rear of the Vette was restyled with Motion Glass for Joel's favorite pooch to cruise around with him. We first met in the field at SCR 1.

We will miss you Mr. Pennington [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]

Indeed, very sad news. Rayburn will always be remembered as a true gentleman and a great ambassador of our hobby.

I feel honored to have had him as a friend and also for being able to host him at MCACN several times. Like several said, his warmth and smile will be missed.
