Jim Bob Bishop, 75, of Miller Grove, Texas went to be with the Lord on September 20, 2022 at his home in Colorado after a courageous battle with cancer.

He was a graduate of Miller Grove High School in 1965. He was a proud veteran and served in the National Guard. During his career he was a builder and a truck driver. One of his greatest talents was the ability to build or fix anything.
He spent many years of his adult life on the family farm in Miller Grove. Ultimately, he found his love for Colorado during his travels on vacations and as a truck driver. He found the perfect spot in the mountains and built his retirement home. He had a love for traveling, camping, motorcycles, the snow, cutting firewood, sitting on the porch in the sunshine and fixing things that no one else would bother with. His greatest love was for the Lord and the family & friends He blessed him with.
His loving and adventurous life will be forever cherished in the lives of his family and friends.
