A widow dies and goes to heaven.

When she gets to the pearly gates of heaven, she asks Saint Peter if he could help her find her husband.

“What’s your husband’s name?” Saint Peter asks her.

“John Brown,” she replies.

“Oh, wow! We have thousands of John Browns up here,” Saint Peter explains.

“But, we have a system of identifying people by their last words. What were your husband’s last words?”

The widow has a think for a few minutes and then responds.

“His last words were, ‘if you go wasting my hard-earned money after I die, I’ll turn over in my grave’.”

Saint Peter’s face lights up.

“Ahhh I know him!” he said.

“He’s very well known up here. We call him ‘whirling John'”.
