When Sam passed away his will provided $50,000 for an elaborate funeral. As the last funeral attendee left, Sam's wife Rose turned to her oldest friend Sadie and said, "Well, I'm sure Sam would be pleased with his funeral""I'm sure you're right," replied Sadie, who leaned in close and lowered her voice to a whisper. "Tell me, how much did the funeral really cost?""All of it," said Rose. "Fifty thousand.""No!" Sadie exclaimed. "I mean, it was very, very nice but really... $50,000?"Rose nodded."The funeral was $6,500. I donated $500 to the shul for the Rabbi's services. The shiva food and drinks were another $500. The rest went for the memorial stone."Sadie computed quickly."$42,500 for a memorial stone? Oy vey, how big is it?"" Five and a half carats." Engagement Ring
