Richard Petty talks about losing his wife

[@Mark-m9z4q]

As hard as these men competed against each other, they were there when they were most needed for each other. God Bless.

[@v12tommy]

Richard Petty is one of the nicest people I've met. Never met Bobby Allison, but he seems the same way too.

[@tomthomson9354]

I never met Richard. He is my all time favorite. I always liked Bobby. Great man! I got to meet him a few times and I met Davey once as well as Kyle. Funny how Bobby and Richard has a rivalry and yet those two were my favorite to watch

[@garyroy3503]

No one nicer than Mr Richard Petty, have talked with him several times at SEMA and was so impressed with his true interest in fans and his willing to talk one on one.

[@rebeccapardue8438]

I had a cousin who raced Nascar in the late 50s through the early 60s named Jimmy Pardue. When Richard Petty won his first Daytona 500 in 1964, Jimmy finished 2nd. Jimmy sat on the pole for the 600 mile Charlotte race when Fireball Roberts had such a bad wreck and was burned so badly. That was in May 1964. Fireball succumbed to his injuries, dying on July 2nd 1964, Richards' 27th birthday. Then Jimmy was killed in a crash in Charlotte during a 10 lap tire test for Goodyear in 1964. Because of Jimmy, I developed a bit of a relationship with Richard, Lynda and Lee. They were undoubtedly some of the finest folks you could ever hope to meet. What you see is what you get. Common good ol' folks. I bugged them constantly for autographs lol. One day a journalist was talking to Richard and he asked Richard about his 7 Daytona 500 victories. Richard, with his wonderful smile said, Well, we lost some we should have won, but then again, we won some we should have lost so it all evens out. The journalist replied, Well Richard, win or lose, you're still the king. I couldn't agree more. Thanks Richard. #43🏁 Mike Pardue

I met richard petty today on 02/11/20 and I was super nervous but I had the honor of having a picture with him and I will never forget it

[@colleenseibert5934]

I enjoyed this video, nice to see people being there for each other when it hurts

[@randyhutchinson9910]

life is so tough, sometimes, we forget, to tell each other, how much we love them

[@PhilipCarroll64]

A true King. He doesn't wear a crown either.

[@billthompson5644]

😭😭😭😢😢I know this happened a while ago, but this was really an intense video. I was really moved by this video,thank you for putting together such an excellent piece of work.

[@robertesposito7434]

Good people, with pain, but they stay, as good & great people.. the world could learn from these great people ?

[@michaellieske7173]

The King always took care of his family. He and his his wife were lucky to have each other. I bet Richard Petty could race tomorrow if he wanted. I was a kid and he was the reason I started watching Nascar.

[@terryduncan5718]

I lost my wife Vicky to a motorcycle accident 6 years ago...ill never get over it...

Miss Lynda was a jewel. I count her as one of North Carolina's favorite daughters. Rest peacefully, ma'am.

[@randyhutchinson9910]

just sad, I've found that if I get up, and live, for my loved ones, it still hurts, but I'm learning to laugh again, just like each one of them would

[@ScottysBackYardBBQ]

why would you give this a thumbs down,,

[@bobhenning7102]

Because people refuse to believe that death is as much a part of life as life itself. They have lost someone and blame God and are mad.

[@mattprssmn4]

Thanks, Lightning.

[@chillhopsvibes9009]

Regardless of how a person likes, dislikes or simply doesn’t care about NASCAR as a sport, there is no escaping the fact that NASCAR people are a whole different breed of cat.

[@Hot80s]

it was tough hearing about Adam i wonder if Kyle still has Adam's corvette sitting in the garage where he parked it several years later it was still parked in that spot & Kyle liked it to remain there.

[@dryout2876]

Hot80s he probably did. He's probably waiting for him to come home.

[@dislikebutton4981]

DryoutTV Oh no my friend. Adam is waiting for Kyle to come home. :)

[@giotrapani7852]

Hot80s it'll prolly go to his newborn kid at some point Kyle and his wife Patti divorced, he's since remarried and is now having a fourth kid, well 3rd that's alive. Adam is sadly no longer with us, his other son Austin is involved with the victory junction gang, then I believe I can't remember if it's his son, or daughter Montgomery lee who is his youngest from patti.

[@robertrice3343]

I believe Austin has Adam’s Corvette.
