Pennycook spent most of his career at Boston Gear, eventually becoming president. He completed his career at Textron Fluid and Power before retiring in 2004. He served on the PTDA Manufacturer Council from 1984 to 1988 and as chair in 1987. He was a board director for two years and served on the steering committee for four.

Gerry Ferris, Boston Gear's vice president of global sales, says "Roger is a very customer-focused individual who knows how to grow and improve relationships. His passion for our partnership with distribution spread throughout our organization".
