And now, a few funeral jokes…
#1 “Rest In Peace”
A new business was opening and one of the owner’s friends wanted to send him flowers for the occasion. They arrived at the new business site and the owner read the card, “Rest in Peace.”
The owner was angry and called the florist to complain.
After he had told the florist of the obvious mistake and how angry he was, the florist replied, “Sir, I’m really sorry for the mistake, but rather than getting angry, you should imagine this: somewhere there is a funeral taking place today, and they have flowers with a note saying, ‘Congratulations on your new location.'”
#2 “Funeral Expenses”
A woman’s husband died. He had $20,000 to his name. After paying all of the funeral expenses, she told her closest friend that there was no money left.
The friend asked, “How can that be? You told me he had $20,000 a few days before he died. How could you be broke?”
The widow replied, “Well, the funeral cost me $6,500. And, of course, I had to make the obligatory donation to the church, pay the organist and all. That was $500, and I spent another $500 for the wake, the food and drinks, you know. The rest went for the memorial stone.”
The friend asked, “$12,500 for the memorial stone? My God, how big was it?”
The widow replied, “Three carats.”
#3 “You’re Next”
When I was younger I hated going to weddings. It seemed that all of my aunts and the grandmotherly types used to come up to me, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, ‘You’re next.’
They stopped that s$%* after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.
Last but not least, witty tombstone messages:
