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 after life 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
