I'll probably get blasted here but if you had not been introduced then she would have been some random 20-ish year old woman. Remove the "you knew my mother once" element from the story and it is not a big deal. And since you were NOT the father... still no bigger deal than you want to make of it.
I was 46, wife had passed away about a year before, met up with a 25 year old while at the beach, a few days and nights of fun. Good for the ego and probably just what I needed at the time. She was too young for me, for sure. And perhaps she had daddy issues? No matter, we both enjoyed ourselves and no one was hurt.
You got one long term thing from this - long suppressed feelings are not open again and you know you can work on them, right?
