Blond Mortician

Doubtless it's not new, but as it came to me from Les, I thought I'd post it
here.
A man who'd just died is delivered to a local mortuary wearing an
expensive, expertly tailored black suit.
The female blonde mortician asks the deceased's wife how she would like
the body dressed. She points out that the man does look good in the black
suit he is already wearing.
The widow, however, says that she always thought her husband looked his
best in blue, and that she wants him in a blue suit. She gives the blonde
mortician a blank check and says, 'I don't care what it costs, but please
have my husband in a blue suit for the viewing.'
The woman returns the next day for the wake. To her delight, she finds her
husband dressed in a gorgeous blue suit with a subtle chalk stripe; the suit
fits him perfectly...
She says to the mortician, 'Whatever this cost, I'm very satisfied.. You did
an excellent job and I'm very grateful.. How much did you spend?'
To her astonishment, the blonde mortician presents her with the blank
check.
'There's no charge,' she says.
'No, really, I must compensate you for the cost of that exquisite blue suit!'
she says.
'Honestly, ma'am,' the blonde says, 'it cost nothing. You see, a deceased
gentleman of about your husband's size was brought in shortly after you
left yesterday, and he was wearing an attractive blue suit. I asked his wife
if she minded him going to his grave wearing a black suit instead, and she
said it made no difference as long as he looked nice. So I just switched the
heads.'
