There was a man who had worked all of his life, had saved
all of his money, and was a real misery when it came to his
money.
Just before he died, he said to his wife, "When I die, I
want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with
me. I want
to take my money to the afterlife with me."
And so he got his wife to promise him with all of her heart
that when he died, she would put all of the money in the
casket with
him.
Well, he died.
He was stretched out in the casket, his wife was sitting
there in
black,
and her friend was sitting next to her. When they finished
the
ceremony,
just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket,
the wife
said, "Wait just a minute!"
She had a box with her, she came over with the box and put
it in the casket. Then the undertakers locked the casket
down, and
they rolled it away.
Her friend said, "I know you weren't fool enough to put all
that money in there with your husband."
The loyal wife replied "Listen, I'm a Christian, I can't go
back on my
word. I promised him that I was going to put that money in
that casket with him."
"You mean to tell me you put that money in the casket with
him!!!!?"
"I sure did" said the wife. "I got it all together, put it
into my
account and wrote him a cheque. If he can cash it, he can
spend it." /forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif
