today after a car operated by her mother was struck from behind
and driven into the path of a tractor-trailer on Memorial
Parkway near the Ingersoll-Rand Co., gate. Cindy Washburn of 104
Dana St., died at 1:15 a.m. in Allentown General Hospital of

Mrs. Washburn's auto in the rear, driving it across the cutoff
into the west bound lanes of Memorial Parkway, Mrs. Washburn's
car was struck broadside by Wise's west bound rig and upended on
the traffic island. Cindy was thrown from the auto onto the
pavement, while her mother and brother were trapped in their
car. Two motorist, William Piccione of New Village and John
DeMatteo of Hackettstown, stopped at the scene to lend
assistance. "I saw a cloud of smoke," Piccione recalled, "and
then saw a tire from one of the cars rolling past my automobile.
"We stopped and I heard this woman hollering My babies, let us
out, oh my babies." Piccione and DeMatteo ran to the auto, which
was lying on its roof, and together pushed the auto onto its
side. They hauled Mrs. Washburn and her son from the auto and
then flagged down a passing ambulance from the Washington Fire
Department. I was concerned with the little girl, then, Piccione
explained, "she was lying in the roadway and seemed pretty badly
hurt. We got the squad to help us cover her with blankets and by
then the Phillipsburg squad reached the scene and took her to
the hospital." "The Phillipsburg squad got there about three
minutes later, but it seemed like three hours," he said. The
volunteers were also concerned about the threat of fire.
"Gasoline was leaking from the car," Piccione said, "and the
other car involved in the accident began to smoulder. It was a
real danger." The Delaware Park Fire Co., washed the gasoline
from the roadway while the company's ambulance took the young
Washburn boy to the hospital. Trooper James Roseberry of the
State Police at Washington continued the investigation, assisted
by Trooper Robert Malanga and Joseph Colligan. The accident
happened at 9:30 p.m. in Lapatcong Township. The child was born
in Easton, May 15, 1961. Her mother is the former Betty Crocker.
The child attended the Sunday school of Non-Sectarian Fellowship
Church, Morris Park. Survivors include her father, William
Washburn, Easton; the maternal grandmother, Mrs. Alice Crocker,
Phillipsburg, and the paternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs.
Sterling Washburn, Phillipsburg. Funeral arrangements are being
