We interrupt this obituary from a note from the wife . . .
Since we didn’t get to have a traditional service, I wanted to include the songs that would have been played for my dear husband.
“I had your love, I had it all and I’m everything I am because you loved me. I was blessed because I was loved by you.” (Celine Dion)
“You said I had you at hello but Mr. Johnson you stole my heart and had me from hello.” (Kenny Chesney)
“Will I marry you? Yes, a thousand times over.” (Alabama)
“Maybe some things last forever after all. The good Lord called you home but that won’t last too long cause your Queen will meet up with you one sweet day in your beautiful Camelot.” (Luke Combs)
“You can tell a lot about a man by the woman he loves.” (Alabama)
“Some of it’s magic, some of it’s tragic, but I had a good life all the way.” (Jimmy Buffet)

Sending you a big hug! I am so sorry for your loss.
My sweet friend Alisa, may God help you along this heartbreaking journey. Me and my two boys will keep you in our prayers. I just read his obit and I realized, he passed on Allan’s birthday. They are reunited. Allan loved Frank even though they butted heads often. He said Frank was his best friend no matter what. I am glad he had Frank in his corner. Frank will be missed. If we can do anything, please let us know. You and his family are in our prayers. We appreciate both of you for everything you have done and being our friends. You both were such a blessing. You can reach me at 803 949 0059. We love you beautiful lady.
