Etched on his headstone is an image of a man tossing a cast net.

His son Joseph Bishop provided some additional information about his Dad: Bosey Bishop was born in Wright, Florida. Early in his life he was a commercial fisherman, and later in life he used a cast net to feed his family. He taught his family how to use a net also, and, needless to say, they still eat a lot of fish.

He was born on January 26, 1930, and died on September 9, 1993.
