Rex Michael Bishop 52, of
Midland, Michigan died October 31, 2008 at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Phoenix,
Arizona.
Rex was born on January 15,
1956 in Midland, son of Patricia and Vernon Bishop. He graduated from Dow
High School in 1975. He and wife Ginger Selley were married on February 13th
of 1982.
With a passion for cars and
motorcycles and most anything with an engine, Rex worked most of his life as a
mechanic. In and around Midland, Rex enjoyed his time with family and friends
and in the outdoors as a hunter and fisherman.
After surviving childhood
cancer, Rex often had to push himself to deal with the resulting health problems
and when the cold winters of Michigan made that more difficult, he moved with
his family to Arizona in 2007. Unfortunately, the climate change was not enough
to overcome his worsening health issues.
Rex is survived by his wife
Ginger and their two children Kevin and Melissa, his mother Patricia, his
brothers Max (Kerri) of Chandler, AZ, Roger of Casa Grande, AZ, Randy (Linda) of
Beaverton, MI, Richard of Glendale, AZ and sister Barbara (Stan) Thomas of Iron
River, MI.
He was preceded in death by his
father Vernon and his brother Patrick.
