Jimmy Frank Bishop

July 11, 1946 - September 25, 2021

Jimmy Frank Bishop, age 75, a resident of Waxahachie, Texas

slipped peacefully from his earthly home to his Heavenly Home

to be with our Lord Jesus Christ for eternity.

He was born on July 11, 1946 in Waxahachie, Texas to Everett James

Bishop and Christine Lott Bishop.

He graduated from H. Grady Spruce High School in Dallas, Texas

in 1964. He continued his education at North Texas State University.

He managed his family upholstery and refinishing company for over

50 years.

He also had the honor to be mentored by and to work with, in his

opinion, the most respected motivational speaker and teacher of all

time, Mr. Zig Ziglar.

Jimmy was always the most happy when he could play a part in people becoming successful.

The one thing about Jimmy that all that knew him will miss is his sincere and heartfelt smile.

He always tried to live by the "Golden Rule"... He knew that

The Holy Bible was his instruction book where he learned and

practiced five major principles which were:

1. Trust God 2. Know God's Word 3. Pray Fervently

4. Build Relationships and 5. Serve others

He was a long time member of First Baptist Church Lancaster, Texas.

Graham, Alanna Bishop, Alan Bishop; his grand children, Jordan Baker,

Jett Graham, Jackson Bishop; his niece Melanie Jones(Johnny); grand

nephew Colton Jones; niece Monica Barrington, niece Melynda Dickey,

nephew Bryan(Diane)Bishop.

He is now wrapped in the loving arms of our Savior Jesus Christ with all

his earthly struggles over.
