Guaranteed Visits | 有保证的探望

English Original

An elderly woman from Brooklyn decided to prepare her will and make her final requests. She told her rabbi she had two final requests. First, she wanted to be cremated, and second, she wanted her ashes scattered over Bloomingdales.

"Bloomingdales!" the rabbi exclaimed. "Why Bloomingdales?"

"Then I'll be sure my daughters visit me twice a week."


中文翻译

一位来自布鲁克林的老妇人决定立下遗嘱,提出她最后的要求。她告诉她的犹太教士,她有两个最终愿望。第一,她希望被火化;第二,她希望将自己的骨灰撒在布鲁明黛百货公司。

“布鲁明黛!”教士惊呼道,“为什么是布鲁明黛?”

“那样我就能确保我的女儿们每周来看我两次了。”
