Dear Paula,I am a Washburn "70" graduate. I don't know if you knew me, but I do know that we both had wonderful mothers. You are blessed to have had yours for a long time. My mother died 27 years ago and I still think of her almost daily. It will be very hard at first, but the sadness will fade away and be replaced with wonderful memories. Sincerely , Jean Carlson-Mykleby
