This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, 'Bobby' Robert Johnson, 57, born on October 20, 1954 and passed away on January 7, 2012.  Too Rough for Heaven!!!
"Dear Lord, we think a mistake's been made And we feel it's right and proper To inform you of this error made And ask you to consider our offer   You see...you took someone from us   Who's too rough around the edges   And would be better off on earth with us   Than up with you in heaven ...  And it wouldn't be a hardship   For us to take him back   Just send him back to us...safe and sound   And there'll be no questions asked   We're even prepared to list the reasons   That he'd be better off right here   And we're sure when they're considered   Your choice will be quite clear   He's just not ready for heaven yet   Right now he'd find it quite a task   But if you'll give him a few more years   We'll work on fixing that   First, you'll find he prefers a pair of jeans   And well-worn shoes or boots   To whatever it is that you wear up in heaven   Be it robes or business suites  For he's much to hard a worker   To keep clothes pristine...he'd make a fuss!   And though you need hard workers in heaven   He'd still be better off with us   Second, when you consider   The language for which he's known   His colorful words would shock the angels   So you might want to send him home   For though you'd respect that he speaks the truth   And "calls things as they are" Frankly, we need more truth like his here on earth   Heaven is just too far   He doesn't have perfect table manners   He prefers beer to a glass of wine   He's just not ready for your heavenly feasts  His manners aren't that refined   And we realize you appreciate his kindness   And the respect he's rightly earned   From those of us privileged to know him.
                                                    May He always be remembered
