With apologies to the unknown author of '"In His Garden" from which I
shamelessly borrowed -

For Boston Bob

God looked around His engine shop and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you and lifted you to rest.
God's shop sure must be beautiful. He only takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering. He knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never get well on earth again.
He saw the road getting rough and the hills were hard to climb.
So He closed your weary eyelids and whispered, "Peace be thine".

It broke our hearts to lose you but you didn't go alone.
Part of us went with you the day God took you home.
If tears could build a highway and heartaches make a lane,
We'd drive that path to heaven to be with you again.
