Not sure what to say?

Dear Dr. C. Bishop and family:

I just learned of Dr. Beverly Bishop's passing and I am so saddened and distressed. I graduated from UB's program in Physical Therapy in 1974, and Dr. Bishop and I have kept in touch several times a year with notes, cards, emails all these years. She grew to know my family, my children, now adults, and shared in my professional and personal joys and successes. Sometime in the 1980's she was passing through Spokane and visited my family here - it was a...

We will always remember her with great respect and feelings of warm friendship. She was a remarkable women.

Please accept our deepest sympathies.

I was saddened with great remorse upon hearing of Dr. Beverly Bishop's passing. She was perhaps the best instructor to date that I have encountered. She was caring and sincere in her teachings. And she was an innovator and an exemplary for all women interested in science!

It was an honor to work with Beverly Bishop at UB. She always had a smile and a cheerful word for everyone. We had a wonderful lunch together at the Neuroscience retreat just over a week ago, talking about the 50th year of her Physiology course. I will miss her charm, her enthusiasm and her zest for life. I send my condolences to her family.

It was a joy and an honor to know and work with Beverly Bishop. She was a woman of so many talents and such unending enthusiasm. I can't believe she's gone -- she was a vivid presence. I offer my deepest condolences to her family, and especially to Charles, her exceptional husband.

I truly cannot think of a woman who exuded more warmth, more natural charm and just more "hutzpa" than Dr. Bishop. Her life's adventures were genuinely inspiring. It was my honor to have been influenced by her.

I was saddened to hear about Dr. Bishop. I first met her when our Chair invited her to our UB Rehab Med. holiday party and have continued to sit and talk with her and her husband each year at the party. She was a lovely lady and will be missed.

My sincere condolences are with the family for the loss of this great woman. Dr. Bishop was the epitome of "mentor". A woman of strong stature with equal measure of compassion. She will be much missed but remembered with love and affection. She is flying with the angels now.
