It is hard for me to describe in words how important Mrs. Bishop was to me and how she impacted my life. Ever since I moved in across the street at the age of 5, Mr. and Mrs. Bishop cared for my sister and I like we were their own grandchildren. Having my own grandparents live far away, their kindness, love, and generosity over the years has meant a lot. Mrs. Bishop always shared with me her memories of us growing up and always asked about me when I saw her after I moved out. She will forever be remembered to me as a loving, kind woman who I will miss dearly for years to come. I pray for Mr. Bishop to find strength during this difficult time, but hope he knows how much love and support he has from me and my family.
*I love you Mrs. Bishop, we have not forgotten and we will save you a dance <3 *

Irene was a sweet, considerate cousin. She always graciously welcomed visitors to her home. We appreciated all the cheerful, thoughtful visits Corky and Irene made with my Mom. Irene will be missed by all.
My thoughts and prayers are with the Bishop family.
My sincere condolences.
