Larry Edward Bishop
August 5, 1948 - December 24, 2020
Anderson, SC
Larry Edward Bishop was born in Cairo, GA, on August 5, 1948, to proud parents, Rosa Bishop, and the late Lester Bishop, Sr. On Thursday, December 24, 2020, Larry was welcomed to his new and healed body while his wife of 50 years, Lynn Bishop, was holding his hand in his home in Anderson, SC.
He is survived by his daughter, Llarie Bishop Michael of Rutherfordton, NC, and his son, Lougan Bishop (Maren) of Nashville, TN; grandchildren who he loved, Steele Michael (Emily) of Forest City, NC, Savannah Michael of Cary, NC, and Simon Bishop of Madison, TN; brothers, Lester Bishop (Vivian), and Charles Bishop (Rhonda), both of Cario, GA; and many nieces, nephews, and in-laws that circle the globe.
Larry graduated from Cairo High School and was involved in many clubs and sports. He served his country in the United States Navy during the Vietnam War aboard the USS Enterprise with four years active duty and two years in the reserves. He was a graduate of Bainbridge Junior College and Valdosta State University. He worked for Torrington (Timken, Koyo, JTEK) for over 38 years. Through those years he worked in Cario, GA, Calhoun, GA, Pulaski, TN, Czech Republic, South Africa, Honea Path, SC, and Greenville, SC.
Larry enjoyed playing golf, world traveling, wood working, sudoku, and being near an ocean or a pool. He loved a variety of music and always wanted to dance. He also coached football and baseball in Cairo, GA.
We are appreciative to his doctors that travelled this journey; Dr. Kadis, Dr. Saunders, Dr. Simmons, and Dr. Ashley Register. Also, to his many devoted nurses from SC Home Health and Agape Hospice.
The family will receive friends on Tuesday, December 29, 2020, from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. at The McDougald Funeral Home. The funeral service will be held on Wednesday, December 30, 2020, at 11:00 a.m. at St. Mary of the Angels Catholic Church with Father Bob Higgins officiating. Burial will follow in Forest Lawn Memorial Park.
