In Loving Memory of Maytag Neptune Washer MAH4000AWQ


Maytag Neptune Washer MAH4000AWQ
A long time ago-June 29, 2012

Funeral services for Neptune, age old, of Spencer will be at the family dump on Saturday, June 30, 2012, time TBA.  Visitation is at the Johnson residence from now until the time of the funeral services. 

Neptune was born in a Maytag factory in Ohio.  She was then put on a show room floor and adopted by a nice older couple.  She lived with this couple until they no longer needed such a large capacity unit and traded her in at Harts Floors and Appliance in Tyndall, SD.  Neptune missed her old family dearly and would fondly recall washing knit sweaters and plaid golf pants.

Neptune came to live with the Johnson family the summer of 2009 when their even older top loader from the Koenig side blew the trannie.  She was excited to be in a home with young children even if it meant more loads per week and they were extremely dirty.  She enjoyed getting out ketchup and grass stains as well as soaking greasy work jeans.

On October 31, 2009 she moved to her final home in the new house of the Johnsons.  There she worked two more enjoyable years.  She loved central air and new plumbing and electric there.  Neptune will always be remembered for her dedication to a job well done, fine ability to get clothing clean and spin laundry amazingly dry.

In recent months Neptune had become increasingly noisy and unreliable.  Liz and her dad tried to nurse her back to health, but on June 29 she went peacefully while soaking a load of dark clothes.    

Neptune will be missed by all who worked with her and used her.  Left to miss her are her owners, Troy and Liz, and their children Deegan, Mazee, and Miri and coworkers Maytag Neptune Dryer MD-6, Tide Detergent HE, Oxi Clean stain remover, Downy Fabric Softener, and the utility sink.  She will also be mourned by the Johnson's clothing, towels, and sheets.  Memorials can be made to the Johnsons and will be used towards the purchase of a new front loader.
