My Father Lee Bishop was a great and beloved man. Thank you for this Obit posting and thanks to all who remember his goodness, his hard work, and his wisdom. He was - as he reported in a speech at Boston College, the day I met my husband Bill - First, a Christian. Second, husband to Joyce, the love of his life. Third, a father to three daughters, one murdered. Fourth a Marine devoted to service of his beloved America. Fifth, an attorney with a passion for the law and for justice. This was a man who KNEW himself. Knew his priorities. He was gifted. I am grateful for the life he gave me.
