Hank, So sorry for the loss of your Mother. Kim & I have tried to get a hold of her and became worried. So I decided to call the Sheriff's office for a wellness check. That is when they so gracious to call me back with the news. And I was able to get her obituary from the funeral home. I am so sorry but she lived 102 years well. God really blessed her.
I don't know if you really know who we are? My son Kim is Dick Bishop's son. And I would like to talk to you if you would call me. My cell # is 904-263-7861. Thanks. Jean Shannon

Hank, I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mom. She was blessed with 102 years. She blessed a lot of people in her life. When I could not reach her after several attempts, I called Sherriff's office for a well check. And they graciously called me back to tell me the news, and the funeral home name. That is where I got her obituary and your address. If you would call me back I'd greatly appreciate it.Jean (Bishop)Shannon 904-263-7861 I'm up late. Thanks.
