William Ford Dishman, 42, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family and friends on January 15, 2025, in Beaumont, Texas. He was born September 27, 1982, to Bill and Lisa Dishman.
Ford was a lifelong resident of Beaumont and graduated from West Brook High School in 2001.

Upon graduation, he opened the Law Offices of Ford Dishman in Beaumont where he enjoyed practicing many facets of the law.
Ford was a beloved son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin and friend. His legacy will forever be defined by his loyalty to family and friends, love of a good time, being a fighting Texas Aggie, and dedication to the law. Ford will be deeply missed and remembered always.
