Billy died....His will provided $30,000 for this elaborate funeral.
As the last guests departed the affair, his wife, turned to her oldest and dearest friend."Well, I'm sure Billy would be pleased," she said."I'm sure you're right," replied her friend, who lowered her voice and leaned in close."How much did this really cost?" "All of it," said his grieving wife… "Thirty thousand dollars." "No!" her friend exclaimed. "I mean, it was very nice, but $30,000?" "The funeral was $6,500. I donated $500 to the church.The whiskey, wine, food and snacks were another $500…The rest went for the Memorial Stone." Her friend quickly computed the total of $7,500 and said "$22,500 for a Memorial Stone? My God, how big is it?" The wife answered, "Three and a half carats”.
