Little Johnny joke
‘Little Johnny has always been teased by the other neighbourhood boys for being stupid. Their favourite joke is to offer Johnny his choice between a nickel and a dime. Little Johnny always takes the nickel. One day, after Johnny takes the nickel, a neighbour takes him aside and says, “Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. Don’t you know that a dime is worth more than a nickel, even though the nickel is bigger?” Johnny grins and says “well if I took the dime, they’d stop doing it, so far I’ve made $20!”’
A Memorial Service will be held at St. Mark Roman Catholic Church (5552 Madigan Drive NE, Calgary) on Tuesday, August 14, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. Cremation. Interment of Evelyn’s cremated remains will take place in Weyburn, SK at a later date. To express condolences, please visit: www.mountainviewmemorial.ca.
