Celebrating a Century

MOSES LAKE — Edna Watkins and Ann Klobucher remember things like the Great Depression - Watkins was nine years of age, and Klobucher eight, at the time of the 1929 Wall Street crash that started it all. They were 21 and 20, respectively, when the attack on Pearl Harbor catapulted the U.S. into World War 11. Watkins celebrated her 102nd birthday March 3, and Klobucher her 101st birthday March 7. And for her birthday, Watkins got a motorcycle ride.
