Comment from Scott: My mom, Ruth Ely, took the attached
photos of Augie, and his son Jackie during the Summer of 1966, Looks like
Augie's working on a race car rim while Jackie's loading up his S-1 modified
sedan fore East Windsor action. My mom and I would frequently stop at the
Moschera's on our way to the races. That's me (at 16) looking through the
passenger window. Who would have thought that in the 70s I would serve in same the National Guard unit with Jackie, Fred Menschner, Ray Neary, Tony Klemcak, and Richie Kanka (Tony owned and Richie worked on the Lee McBride # 11). These were racing gods in my opinion! It was a sad, sad day when Jackie lost his life on a snowy road. Not because he was racer but because Jackie, like his dad and the rest of his family, were good, kind, caring people! |
