Al Bishop met Laron McGinn in Italy in 2001. Laron was visiting and The Bishop Family was living there at the time. A few years later, Al and his family relocated to Nebraska from the east coast following his decades of service in the U.S. Air Force. Although he came to Nebraska hesitantly and at the insistence of his family, he has grown to be a true Nebraskan and a respected member of the community. Three of his sons have worked on the McGinn Ranch.
Al is well known as a philosopher/wordsmith. He is renowed for his ability to turn a phrase.
