The Obedient Wife.

There was a man who had worked all 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 into the

casket with him.

Well, he died. He was stretched out in the casket, his wife was

sitting there - dressed in black, and her friend was sitting next

to her. When they finished the ceremony, and just before the

undertakers got ready to close the casket, the wife said,

"Wait just a moment!"

She had a small metal 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 were not fool enough to put all that money in

there with your husband."

The loyal wife replied, "Listen, I cannot go back on my word. I

promised him that I was going to put that money into the

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, then he

can spend it."
