Tom Bishop 1943-2009

The NBUA has learned that it has lost another member. Tom Bishop, who has been with NBUA since 1996 and was present at our Business Meeting on Saturday, passed away last night, according to his friend and former NBUA member Richard Munsell. Tom was looking forward to another great baseball season.

Tom's official notice can be found here.

Tom's Memorial Service will be Friday, March 13, 2009 at 1 p.m. It will be held at Clise Mansion at Marymoor Park – 6056 West Lake Sammamish Parkway
Redmond, WA 98052.

His family requests that in lieu of flowers, please visit the Peter Kirk baseball park in downtown Kirkland this spring and purchase one of their famous PK burgers, where all proceeds go to the Kirkland Baseball Commission. Now that is something we all can get behind!

NBUA offers its prayers and condolences to the Bishop family. He will be missed.
