Judy “The Polish Ace” Sowinski

Judy Sowinski

I’d like to join the others here is wishing Best Birthday Wishes to Judy Sowinski. Years ago when she showed up down on Market Street to meet with my partner & I, I knew that we had had a fortunate bit of luck. Little did I know how fortunate we would become as an offer to help us out occasionally became a full time coach. And then she brought on Skip Schoen.   And the luck just continued. But more important than the She Devils and the Old School Derby Associations professional luck was my personal luck. I can honestly say that I’m proud to call both Judy & Skip my friends & surrogate family. So once again I say Happy Birthday to the Red Shirt who had faith in me long ago. I hope to some day make you as proud of me as I am of you.
