Hereโs a photo of my mom, who died at 85 yesterday in our home from pancreatic cancer. This was taken long before I was born and when she first started her career as a computer programmer in San Francisco, where my sister and I were later born. She was very stylish until we moved to Seattle and she discovered that no one got that dressed up for work. She learned to like pantsuits. ๐

@KatM the picture you paint of her, here, creates intrigue, with few words. One can only imagine how you must feel right now. I'm sorry for your loss!

@KatM I am in amazement at the early pioneers of software, your mom was one of them.

@licked She trained a whole lot of people in FORTRAN and COBOL, and later BASIC. She taught me how to use our Commodore 64. ๐
