Paula

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Your post has brought a tear to my eye and I wanted to say thank you for caring for and remaining commited to Enzo, your family and our rag tag community over the years. I never had the pleasure of meeting him and after hearing comments in this thread it sounds like it will be my loss.

Very sorry to hear this news.

Take Care

Paula;

My condolences to you and your family! While I do not know Enzo, I did have the pleasure to speak to him briefly several years about returning a wrong part that I ordered - it wasn't a cheap part and I thought I'd get hassled about wanting credit back.
But, Enzo was kind and professional to chat a little with me. He apologized for not having what I wanted while crediting my credit card. So, it was an enjoyable experience and since then, have continued to purchase parts when needed from Finish Line.
He will be missed!
God bless you and your family at this time!
George C.

Sorry to hear Paula, our thoughts & prayers are with you, the family & all loved ones. I spoke with him a few years ago and bought several parts and was impressed with his personality and knowledge of the Cobras.

I'm also impressed with your,... love and care for him. I had to do the same with my mother with Ovarian cancer for 3.5 years and has passed away . It's very hard to deal with, but our love for them pushes us through their time of need. I thank the Lord that she's done suffering and in Heaven with other family members & friends.

Take care and let us all know if you need,..... anything.

Paula, I just read about Enzo passing away. What a great human being. He was always helpful in taking extra time to answer my stupid questions with a huge amount of patience and always a correct answer. My most sincere condolences to you and your family.

Paula,

So very sorry to hear this news. Many of us enjoyed doing business with Enzo over the years, and Finish Line certainly reflected his values. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

So sorry for the loss! I just got my car out and drove it two hours ago. I COULD NOT have done this with out the great parts I received from you guys over the years! Thanks for always having great customer service and a positive attitude when others in this industry didn't. All the best to the family. Stay strong, and like you said "live the life Enzo would have wanted me to". Warmest Regards, Matt

Paula,
My deepest sympathies for your loss. The Finish Line family has always been there when I had a question or was looking for a part. I'm sure he will be watching and keeping an eye on things from above. He will be sorely missed by the Cobra community and all who knew him.

Paula,
My heart goes out to you and your family. I only dealt with Enzo in the last couple of months. He was extremely helpful and a real pleasure to deal with. He WILL be missed

Stu.

Hi Paula, I'm so glad I took the time to find your place while I was in Florida. Aside from getting to meet you both I got the "kid in a candy store" feeling and got to experience the second to none customer service Finishline is known for first hand. Johnnie and your girl have done you both proud in stepping up to the plate in this tough time and keeping both Enzos and a million other Cobra owners dreams alive. I am so terribly sorry for your loss and so thrilled about the grandson. Please try and keep busy as it will help. Sincerest condolences.

Paula, I'm so sorry for your loss. 59 is too young. I'm sure he went knowing what a wonderful wife he had. Mourn not too long the loss, but rejoice forever that he was.
Sincerely, John O

Paula, I do not know you, I'm just a periodic customer at Finishline and want to say "how sorry I am for your loss, and its nice to read all the great comments from your friends and finishline customers".
I recently read a great book called The Art of Racing in the Rain, It's a fun read and deals somewhat with issues you might be going through right now. Oh yes, there is an Enzo in the book...you will love him too.
Bill

Dear Paula,

My sincere condolences in your loss we all feel giref over the passing of a very good man.

First and foremost Enzo was a great person, enthusiastic about every thing he did and the people he loved. In business he was honest and ethical to a fault, always willing to go above and beyond to give his expert advice and the best products available.

He will be missed by us all

Tony Ripepi
