Mrs Bishop will be missed dearly by the staff at Norfolk Health Care she was my personal favorite. I remember buying her lunch when she wanted some chicken, i remember given her the earrings out my ear because she said she liked them. Her laugh and smile would bighten my day.

The love that Aunt Barbara gave me as a little girl will never be forgotten, she handmade me a beautiful necklace the last time I was able to visit her, I will cherish this so dearly in her memory.
