I just posted a few of my mother's things recently, as it is almost mother's day. The memories that we have of our loved ones will never be forgotten.

I am sure it will probably never be used as it's intended purpose again but it would make a beautiful piece of furniture for storage and to settle a flat screen tv on, I think.

Your television is a wonderful piece and such a treasure to have belonged to your family and passed down. I love the story about family and neighbors gathering on the porch to watch TV. We have my husband's parents old stereo record player, which also has a radio. It still works! The built-in speakers are covered with fabric, like your TV. It is french prov. style and I am considering painting it this summer. Thanks for sharing this treasure, Patti!<br />lynn cockrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16250601457878656085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2039834840181816670.post-75108509399861526942013-04-24T20:35:00.597-04:002013-04-24T20:35:00.597-04:00Thanks so much for hosting !

I wouldn't change a thing about my daddy ( who passed away at age 91 several years ago) so I won't change his little chair either... surprisingly, I can still fit in it and when I rock I am flooded with happy memories from the past... I'm sure you too are flooded with happy memories with your beautiful television... wishing you a beautiful day, hello Patti!... xoxo Julie Marie PS I still have all of my old 45's and adapters!... I am going to be 64 on my birthday in May and not ashamed to say so... life is good!...
