Jennie Helderman

Author. Blogger. Activist.

Growing up in my family, you had to thread a worm onto a bream hook or tell stories. I can still do both.
I'm an author, blogger, speaker, and champion of women and children. Can tell my stories or help you tell yours.

Farewell Toaster Oven

September 8, 2018 Leave a Comment

Toaster Oven
Dec., 1959-Sept., 2018

You were a wedding gift 59 years ago. You’ve made our toast every morning and reheated our snacks. We remember who gave you to us. We intended to write GE to tell them about you, but didn’t. You outlived GE’s small appliance division anyway.
You made our toast yesterday and then quietly turned off, not to be revived. Rest in peace.

Rest in Peace

                       Farewell My Friend
