I reallly hope they are just trying to sell the machine. I would hope they would have more respect for Great Grandma. My wife and I treasure the things the Great Grandma's and Grandma's ( and mothers and fathers to) left us. I consider we are caretakers of these nice things to pass on to our children. My son would kill me if I tried to sell his Great Grandma's sewing machine(1916 red eye) and all the sewing stuff of hers. He wants it all to pass to his children it is such a nice family history we have here. A good example wife still uses the Maytag wringer washing machine(1946 Commander) that her mother washed her and her twin brothers diapers. Of course we have a modern washer but you can't beat this old machine to wash floor rugs,towels and large sheets and boy does it clean,although we have been known to get a finger or two pinched in the wringer. :lol: It is the only thing she will use to wash work clothes and fishing clothes.
