   with our Lord after a long and brave battle with Huntington's Disease.
   Services will be at 1:30 p.m. Sunday, March 28, 1999, at Saint Andrews
   Cumberland  Presbyterian Church with the Rev. Dr. Craig Martindale and
   Rev.  Dr.  Jimmy  Braswell  officiating.  Interment  will be at Sunset
   Memorial Gardens. Family visitation will be from 4 to 6 p.m. Saturday,
   March  27, 1999, at Frank W. Wilson Funeral Directors. Arrangements by

   Mr.  Bishop  was  born  Nov. 4, 1948, in Oklahoma City. He grew up and
   graduated  from high school in Borger. He graduated in 1972 with a BBA
   from West Texas State University.
   
   On  July 1, 1969, Warren married Joan Friend Bishop. They were blessed
   with two wonderful children, Brent and Kimberly. Warren was very proud
   of  his  family. He loved watching his children in their activities at
   school  and  church  and  his  face always lit up when he talked about
   them.
   
   Mr.  Bishop  was  a  member  of  Saint Andrews Cumberland Presbyterian
   Church  and  Promise  Keepers  where  he had so many, many friends. He
   always felt he was surrounded by Angels, by all of their prayers, help
   and support.
   
   Mr.  Bishop  worked  for  A-1  Homes  and HSA Mortgage until 1991. His
   favorite  hobbies  were  watching  the  Dallas  Cowboys,  reading  the
   newspaper,  going  to the movies and eating chocolate chip cookies and
   Blue Bell ice cream.
   
   Warren  was  a  fighter  and  he fought this terrible disease for many
   years. The staff at the Permian Basin Rehabilitation Center became his
   second  family  as  they  fought  the Huntington's battle with him. He
   loved them all dearly.
   
   Mr.  Bishop  touched  so  many hearts and made so many friends. He was
   taken  such  good  care  of  his last few months of life by the caring
   people of Home Hospice and the Avalon Place Nursing Home.
   
   Mr. Bishop was preceded in death by his mother, Helen McDonald.
   
   Warren  is survived by his wife, Joan Bishop of Odessa; his son, Brent
   Bishop  of  Seattle,  Wash.;  his daughter, Kimberly Bishop of Odessa;
   father,  A.L.  Bishop  of  Royce  City;  stepfather, Lloyd McDonald of

   Paul  McDonald  of  Springfield,  Mo.;  along with many aunts, uncles,
   cousins, nieces, nephews and in-laws.
