Matthew R. Bishop

Sending our deepest condolences and heart-felt sympathies to the Bishop family. Bish had a positive impact on everyone he came in contact with. His commitment, integrity and care for others was unmatched. May he raise you up on eagles wings, Bish.

Great coach. Held me accountable and made me a better person on and off the field. God bless

I had Mr. Bishop as a teacher last year for a hospitality and tourism class. I'm now in the 12th grade, and I would see him in the hallways on the way to my class. Every time I walked by I always wanted to say something, just to check up and see how he was doing. When I had his class last year, I didn't get to know him to well but we didn't have any problems with each other. He always wanted to teach something new to everyone and always shared his thoughts in a delightful and meaningful way....

I enjoyed working with Coach Bishop. He always had me laughing every day. He will truly be missed. Thoughts and prayers to the Bishop family.

Bish constantly coached us with the same intensity as did Coach Sheptock til the point we thought he was Shep and he cared and loved us more that we thought he was a clone. Bish has one of the biggest hearts and love for the game / us that I´ve ever experienced. He will never be forgotten. I can truly say he left his mark on us.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

May God bless you and your family during this time of sorrow. Matthew was my student and advisee in the Education Department at Wilkes. I remember him as a mature, caring, and competent individual who was always prepared and eager to learn. I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing.
