Cynthia And the Extended Family of
Dr. Justine Washington:
I do regret that you've had to experience the passing of your dear one, but God has blessed her indeed, for 96-years she has been a True Soldier, who never faltered nor failed, and for this, you've got to give the God Glory and the Praise.
God be with you all as you go through your healing process, for she is now safely Home with Her Master.

To the family of Dr. Washingington,
I was an admirer of Dr. Washington for many years. Although I never worked with her or had a class from her, she still taught me many things about being a teacher, a Delta and above all, an upstanding Black woman.
I will truly miss her and her encouraging words. I will continue to do my best to live up to her inspiration as I strive to be "just like her when I grow-up".

MY SINCERE SYMPATHY TO DR. WASHINGTON'S FAMILY AND LOVE ONES. SHE WAS A GREAT LADY AND WILL LEAVE A WONDERFUL LEGACY.

MY PRAYERS ARE WITH EACH OF YOU.

Condolences to the family of my very good friend. Dr. Washington was a very beautiful person whom I have known for many years. My prayers are with you.

A TRIBUTE TO A GREAT PAINEITE, EDUCATOR, POLITICIAN AND LADY. A TRAILBLAZER IN HER OWN TIME

This community has lost a great gift and live giver in developing people for humanity.

I do hope to be able to get to Augusta on Saturday to be part of the great celebration of Dr. Washington's life. What an inspiration she was, and continues to be, for all of us. May God's fullest blessings be with all the family at this time.

I was sorry to hear of Dr. Washington's death. She will be deeply remembered for her unique smile and her dedication to educating others.
May God Bless and Comfort her family and friends.
