She was married to\nthe late James Washington Jr. and is the proud mother of three sons and\nthree granddaughters. Ms. Washington has lived in Astoria, Queens for\nover 50 years.\n  After graduating from Borough of Manhattan College and Baruch\nCollege, Ms. Washington served as a Contract Administrator with the New\nYork City Department of Parks for 31 years.\n  Ms. Washington has dedicated most of her spare time to community\nservice. Her many roles include: Chairperson of the Advisory Board at\nElmhurst Hospital; New York State Licensed Chaplain; New York City\nDepartment of the Aging Advisory Board Member; Director of Astoria\nCivic Association; Astoria-LIC Kiwanis; Vice President of SHAREing/\nCAREing and Director of Taminent Women's Regular Democratic Club.\n  In recognition of her commitment to serving her community, Ms.\nWashington has received many awards and honors from New York City\nCouncil, State of New York, Congress of the United States, New York\nState Assembly and the Coleman Foundation, among others.\n  Additionally, Ms. Washington has traveled extensively and has visited\nfive continents. A considerable amount of this travel has been service\noriented; including the several trips Ms. Washington has taken to\nvolunteer abroad in Dominica, Kenya and South Africa.\n  Ms. Washington's dedication to aiding others is epitomized by her\nmotto--``If I can help someone as I pass this way, I must do it now,\nfor I may not pass this way again.'' She has demonstrated tireless\ndedication to her community throughout her entire adult life.
