This couple kurt and monica vilani of ny and possibly summerland key fla. 8 miles north of where i am now do not fit the profile of terrorists or anything like that.

https://www.the-sun.com/news/9706335/kurt-monica-villani-rainbow-bridge-explosion-niagara-falls/ And then about an hour later, heard the news and I'm like, oh my God."

Their other neighbor Mary Meyer commented: "They were so loved.

"It's really shock and devastation and it's just gut-wrenching really, really.

"They were so generous and kind and always willing to help.

"Just always willing to help and lend a hand. Always, always, always. They were just so very, kind wonderful people."

More of Kurt and Monica's neighbors noted the amount of help they offered to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Niagara Falls and the Niagara Sailing Clubhouse.

Both Kurt and Monica Villani were 53-year-old residents of Grand Island, New York.

They owned and operated Gui's Lumber, a tool and hardware chain native to the abovementioned area.

Their family business was founded by Kurt's father in 1986.

Kurt and Monica married in May 1995 and are survived by their two children; son Kurt Jr. and daughter Mia.

Friends say they'd been having problems with the gas pedal in prior weeks

The family operated Gui's Lumber which has seven locations, including one in Niagara Falls, where Wednesday's fatal crash took place. The chain began with Villani's father, Kurt M. Villani, in 1986.

In 2015, the family's business made headlines across the region when they were exonerated following a lengthy investigation by revenue authorities in which they were found to have 'overpaid' on some taxes rather than 'underpaid,' as had been alleged.

Wednesday's incident is not the first time a horrific crash has claimed the life of a member of the Villani family.

In July 1978, Villani's grandmother, Lorraine, was killed when she was flung from a boat that was traveling along the Niagara River at 3am. Kurt M. and his wife, Gail Villani, were also on board at the time but were unharmed.

The boat struck a bridge while Lorraine Villani was at the helm. The family later successfully sued the company that built the bridge, after it was found to not have been properly illuminated, for $120,000 in 1984.

Online records show that the Villani family owns a range of properties in the Grand Island-area.

My question earlier was if there was a gas pedal problem why didn’t he take it to the repair shop?

If you have a $300,000 car, I’d think you would maintain it.

Can’t really talk about it on the web here but there are some very simple, cheap, ways to demonstrate how violent gasoline vapor can be.

Do a search for BLEVE on YouTube.

BLEVE stands for Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion. This is essentially what a thermobaric weapon, aka aerosol bomb, creates.

And.....if there WAS a gas pedal problem......

Are their recall notices, on this model Bentley, for said issue?

Is there a service receipt, for this car, for this issue?

Or, is Bentley hiding a faulty gas pedal problem?

It has to be one of the above.

My guess is only a few places will work on Bentleys,it was like that with rolls and a few other brands.Also,sounds like a very busy couple.
These were the kind of people that donated 250 turkeys to the neighborhood,appears they were beloved.
I’ll ask around and see if anyone knew them down here.

Thanks. That really hit home. It reminded me of one of my homecomings but mine involved a sailboat.

I wish I could go sailing with my dad again. I wish I was able go sailing with my son again. I taught him to sail the same way he taught me.

Hard to say but I do know that if you bring one of those unique cars into most small towns few shops will work on them.

The question I have is - how old is the Bentley? I mean, if it’s really old, then I can see mechanical throttle issues. I had a throttle on my Maverick stuck wide open once. I kicked the gas petal a few time and it snapped back closed. I later added another big spring to make sure that the throttle would close when I took my foot off the gas pedal. Old cars, no money, we made do with our first cars.

But the Bentley, if it’s relatively new, is probably “drive by wire” which means that there’s no mechanical connection between the bas petal and the actual throttle. It’s most likely all electronically controlled.

And hackable, perhaps.

I don’t think the story that they made up is true. It’s a long, long ways from my 71 Maverick with the gummed-up sticky Carter 1 barrel carburetor and a late model Bentley.
