Mona was very fortunate to have touched the lives of so many
young children while caring for them in her home, her greatest
blessings were her four children, she was very proud to have raised
them on her own. But of all, her heart was fullest spending time with
her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Sunday suppers were her
favourite part of the week along with Friday night jam
sessions.
Besides her parents, Mona was predeceased by her husband Bill
Bishop; brothers, Reg and David; sister-in-law Judy; brother-in-law
George and her very special cat Bootsy.

you to the staff at the Fawcett’s Rest Home, Jordan LifeCare
Centre and Dr. Morton for their compassion shown toward Mona and the
family. A very special thank you to Jean and Henry for always making

that extra mile. We are forever grateful. ❤
