Joel G. Bishop, eighty-four years of age, of Bloomfield, died after a brief illness on Sunday (September 22, 2013) at St. Francis Hospital. He was the husband of the late Diane Kelman Bishop.
Born in Hartford on April 17, 1929, he lived in West Hartford with Dee and raised five children. He attended local schools including Westminster School in Simsbury and then on to the University of Connecticut in Storrs.
Joel was a U.S. Army veteran of the Korean War. For the last few years, he enjoyed working with all the wonderful people at the Puritan Furniture Company on New Britain Avenue in West Hartford.
His children are Samuel Bishop of Windham, ME and his two sons, Roscoe and Nathaniel; Daniel Bishop and his wife, Louise, of Katy, TX and their children, Jacob and Madeline; Susan Hartshorn of Stafford, PA and her husband, John, and their children, Benjamin and Caroline; Emily Demarco and her husband, Stephen, of Baltimore, MD; and Sally Turnbull and her husband, Dan, of Raleigh, NC and their children, Brian, Rachel, and Matthew. He was predeceased by his loving sister, Lois; and leaves his loving sister, Jean Helliesen of LaCrosse, WI, and many close relatives and "very close and good friends." Joel was a tremendous man, loved by all and truly missed.
Now a very special note to Adrienne-words have not yet been written to let you know how much happiness and love you brought into my life. Knowing your family and you knowing mine gave us a true bond and our visits to Barbara, relatives in Montreal, and our travels with Lois and Mike were just a piece of the whole pie that we shared together. I'll be waiting for you in heaven.
Funeral services will be held at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, September 24, 2013 at the Emanuel Synagogue Cemetery, 1361 Berlin Turnpike, Wethersfield, with Rabbi David J. Small officiating.
Following the services, guests will be received at the Emanuel Synagogue.
