Jerry was born December 6, 1948. He passed away unexpectedly on September 12, 2025 at his home in Selah, WA.
Jerry lived a happy life clear up until the end! Family was everything to him. Being surrounded by family on a daily basis always put a smile on his face! Jerry had a very big affectionate and loving heart! Always demanding hugs from "girls" when he was out and about. He cared for any and every one- blood related or not! All who had the opportunity to know him, or cross paths with him, will surely miss his quirky comments, sense of humor, his laughter, his friendship, and his kindness!
Jerry was a jack of all trades, from construction, in many areas, janitorial work and handy man. At the end Jerry was a fantastic ranch hand and egg collector at Bishop Ranch!
Jerry is survived by his children, Robert (Shay) Smith, Tx. Brian Billington, WA. Christina (Leo) Bautista Marquez, WA. Steve (Danielle) Bishop, OH. John (Rondi) Bishop, WA. Mickey (Mike) Zerr, MO. Anna Hugh, WA. Lynn (Rocky) Nelson, WA. 26 Grandchildren, 20 Great Grandchildren and 1 Great Great Grandchild Whom he loved each and every one the same! Jerry is also survived by Bradley and Roxanne Bishop.
Jerry was preceded in death by his Father, Don Bishop. Mother, Mary Hinton. Brother, Ronald Bishop. Loves of his life, Martha (Mickey) Midland Lewis, Tammie Bishop, Sandra Peters, and Phyllis Carter. One Son Michael Bishop. And Grandchildren, Ann Marie Ramirez and Steven W. Bishop II.
