Poor Agnes, she knew her husband's heart was failing and it was just a matter of time, but when he did pass on in his sleep one night it was still a bit of a shock. She knew what she had to do though and went down to the funeral home to make the arrangements. To her surprise (and at first concern) the mortician was an attractive young blonde woman. Still, the arrangements went smoothly, the young lady obviously knew her craft. Then...on the morning of the funeral...Agnes realized she had made a mistake. Her Tom had said that he wanted to be buried in a blue suits and she had provided a gray one.
She frantically called the funeral home and was surprised when the young lady mortician said that it was no problem. A blue suit it would be. All went fine with the funeral and - while it was a bit of a draining day - Agnes knew she had to talk to the young mortician afterwards and pay for the suit.
The young blonde mortician said "there is no charge Ma'am, it worked out perfectly. You see we have another funeral later this evening for an elderly man who is just your husband's size and he was in a blue suit. I asked his wife if a gray suit was okay with her and she said it was."
"Bless you young lady" Agnes said..."but that still must have been a lot of trouble for you."
"Not really...I just switched the heads"
