OBEDIENT WIFE
There was a man who had worked all of his life, had saved all of his
money, and was a real miser 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.
So, her friend said, "Girl, 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 check. If he can
>cash it, he can spend it."
