Last Respects
A man passes away, and his three best friends are at his casket after his funeral paying their last respects before he is lowered down into his grave. His golfing partner, Bill, says "*sniff* You know Jack, I'm really gonna miss you ole buddy, and I know I still owe you 50 dollars for that last round of golf we played when you beat me so bad, and although I know you won't be able to use it, I still have to make sure we are squared away, so here." as Bill tucks 50 dollars in Jacks coat pocket. Next, Andy steps up and says, "I'm sure gonna miss Jack too, and that reminds me, I borrowed 100 dollars from you 6 months ago, and you never even asked for it back. I can't go on knowing I never repaid you, so here." and Andy tucks a 100 dollar bill into the deceased's coat pocket.Next his friend and long time work associate Darlene steps up, and with tear filled eyes asks if she can be alone with Jack. The other two step away, and Darlene say's, "You know Jack, working with you all these years were really great, and I sure will miss you too, and I recall that you bought me lunch last week and I still owe you 5 dollars for it, and I could never sleep well knowing I did not return it to you." So she writes him out a check for 155 dollars, tucks it into his coat pocket and takes the cash.
