Ben Bishop Funeral Expenses and Family Support

Donation protected
Ben Bishop, the mainstay of many a New England vintage dance event, has passed away following a heart attack on Feb. 16.  Due to long-term health issues, Ben did not have enough insurance, and the family is now in a precarious financial position.  

I am setting up this GoFundMe to help Katy, Nick, David, and Nora not only with Ben's funeral costs, but also to provide living expenses while they plan for a future without their husband and father.

If you have ever enjoyed Ben and Katy's hospitality at a Nahant weekend, or at many Newport vintage dance weeks (or even if you've just heard stories), please contribute what you can.

NOTE: I have set up the account so that Katy can withdraw funds directly.  I am not the middleman. :)
