The power of a woman

There was a man who had worked all of his life and had saved all of his
money and was a real miser when it came to his money.

He loved money more than just about anything, and just before he died, he
said to his wife,"Now listen, 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." She said, "Listen, I'm a Christian, I
can't go back on my word. I promised him that I was gonna 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 wrote him a cheque."
