Steven Owens didn't mean any harm when he said to people to f--- off.

His son said that his father was fired up, but it was a playful thing.

The Owens children tried to put their father's spirit on his gravestone after he died.

It's in our hearts forever.

We're going to meet again.

It was gratifying to have good memories.

We have a son and a brother.

Steven Owens is buried at Powers-Warren Cemetery in Runnells, Iowa, which is approximately 20 miles southeast of Des Moines.

On closer inspection, one can see that the first letter of each phrase spells out "F--- off."

The drawing of the design was objected to by the managers at the cemetery. Wittenbeck Memorial told the cemetery that if a court injunction was not issued they would go ahead with the installation.

Powers-Warren Cemetery could not be reached. There was a message left at Runnells City Hall. A request for comment was not returned.

Lindsay Owens said that one person has submitted an anonymous complaint after the headstone was installed.

She said that it wasn't anyone's business. Leave if you don't like it.

Lindsay Owens said her dad wouldn't want all this trouble.

She said that he wasn't who he was. He didn't care what people said.

Even though Steven Owens was a bad dancer, he was often captured flashing a peace sign in photos and dancing with his granddaughter.

He was a happy man. He liked to have a good time.

The Owens children are hoping that Wittenbeck Memorial won't have to remove or change their father's headstone.

Owens doesn't think it affects anyone else. There are a lot of people that won't know about it. It means something to the people that know what it means. It shouldn't be noticed by any random person. It is meant for the family and we honor our father with it.

Dad's body was left unburied for 3 days at Utah grave site.

The nuns' graves will be moved as the cemetery becomes housing.
