An elderly lady is very upset as her husband Albert had just passed away. She goes to the undertakers to have one last look at her dearly departed husband. The instant she sees him she starts crying. One of the undertakers strides up to provide comfort in this sombre moment.
Through her tears, she explains that she is upset because her dearest Albert was wearing a black suit, and it was his dying wish to be buried in a blue suit. The undertaker apologises and explains that traditionally they always put the bodies in black, but he'd see what he could do.
The next day she returns to the undertakers to have one last quiet moment with Albert before his funeral the following day. When the undertaker pulls back the curtain, she manages to smile through her tears as Albert is resplendent in a smart blue suit. She says to the undertaker: "Wonderful, wonderful, you've done a fantastic job. But where did ye get that beautiful blue suit?"
"Well, yesterday afternoon after you left, a man about your husband's size was brought in and he was wearing a blue suit. His wife explained that she was very upset as he had always wanted to be buried in a black suit," the undertaker replies. The wife smiles at the man. And then he continues:
"After that, it was simply just a matter of swapping the heads..."
