Chrysler and I have been together since June 1964. He has served me well. Over the past few years, he developed some issues. Just before each summer season, he needed a freon transfusion. After that, he perked up and did just fine. Regretfully, on July 20, 2011, he said I am sorry, it is time for you to let me go. It's crazy I know, but I was sad over this loss. 
He was laid to rest Friday, July 22, 2011.

I hope you found a replacement quickly.
You even decorated him with a wreath!!!! You're so clever. Hopefully you didn't have to wait to long in this heat to get a replacement.

How cute you are! They just don't make them like they used to, do they? Keep cool, LV!
This was so cute and funny, so LV!!!! He had a good life with you in your home, LV. xo,
Awwww, Sweetpea!!! You have my deepest sympathy for your loss, and congratulations on your long and happy years together.
That was a lovely, heartfelt eulogy, and I'm sure your dear Chrysler left many friends to mourn his loss.
(You DO know that the Mourning Period in THIS weather is five minutes, do you not? It's quite proper to move on as soon as the Appliance Bearers carry him respectfully out of the house).
May your new relationship be as long and as comfortable.
LOL...loved this! Seems Chrysler served you well. Hope you were able to find another "Cool friend" real fast!!!
LOL! I was almost afradi to click you link at first.
The next one will probably last six months to a year. They don't make things like they used to!
That is the year I was born.. I can just imagine how tired it was! I hope you get a new one quickly to ward off the heat and humidity.
Blessings~
oh that's funny!

It's not a car, it's a furnace/air conditioner?
LOL & Wow!! I was five yrs. old. It sure did last you a long. I'm sure it was hard to say goodbye. I'm so ready for summer to be over!! Keep cool!
now this was funny...RIP!
If I had a heat/air unit that lasted that long, I think I would feel kindly toward it too. We just replaced a five year old unit and I didn't even give it a second glance. We would like to have some natural cool air,the kind we don't have to buy from the electric co.
Cute post, LV. I am so glad that you provided Chrysler with a nice wreath. Afterall he provided well for you for MANY years. Besides the wreath, I hope you gave him a nice funeral. ha
Hugs,
Betsy
I can only hope Chrysler's replacement lasts at least 47 years. This is a nice tribute to a faithful friend.
You are crazy. That is all.
LV, I knew you were a woman after my own heart! I drive my car as long as it will allow me. The one I have now is 8 years old with 47,000 miles. I hope it lasts as long as your did! Good work!
R.I.P. Chrysler. May your replacement be as faithful as you were for the past 47 years.
I returned from vacation now and again continue to follow your blog and work.
I am sending you a big greeting and a kisses from Croatia:)

Oh that IS sad!!! Seems as though he served you well...I'm sure you'll never have another one like him!!!
Wow, you sure did get some use out of that old baby...he served you well! very cute post :)
Q~
They sure don't make them like they used to. The wreath is a lovely touch.
Just remember all the good years you had together, all the days and nights he kept you cool.
Now your electric bills might be cheaper with a newer unit.
He served you well.
Bless his electronic innards!
I'm mourning the loss of your air conditioning! We have no air at the cottage and it was 88 degrees at midnight last week, yikes! I love that you are 81 years young and blogging, you are an inspiration. Thank you for your nice comments about our cottage garden post, I hope you will stop by again.
Aw hopefully you have air now. He lived a good long life. :-)
I love you! You really need your own talk show. You just have a gift of lifting everyones spirits. Thanks! :0)-Joy
Awww I'm so sorry for your loss. He had a good long life and was taken care of by the best. My thoughts will be with you as you look for a replacement....who will have big shoes to fill.

Talk about timing! Last Thursday and Friday were stifling in this neck of the woods and I'm sure in yours too! I hope you're up and running again.
WOW you are something special to this blog world. Thanks for stopping by. Marveling at your age and having so much fun, with a COMPUTER!!!! It's a great way to keep in touch and spend time.
Great little post on your Chrysler!! I too thought it would be a car. I peeped about a bit and enjoy what you are sharing. Have a wonderful weekend.
You did well in giving tribute to what we normally take for granted ;-)
I'm glad to have visited you and thank you for blessing my heart today.
I hope you have a beautiful weekend.
Your silly side is a great side to get to know! RIP old a/c friend! Hee Hee.
