Jeanne India Bishop, 81, passed into the arms of her Lord on Thursday, Feb. 17, 2022, in Ponderay, Idaho, peacefully in her sleep with her son by her side.

India was born February 7, 1941 in Los Angeles, California, to William and Mary Bishop. She grew up in Nevada and moved to Sandpoint, ID in her mid-thirties.

India loved the outdoors; camping, boating, playing bingo and hiking. Her greatest passion in life was her love of God, her family and her friends.

Her employment in the Sandpoint area included, beautician, cosmetologist, landscaper, working at Coldwater Creek and machine operator at Unicep.

After becoming ill in 2008, she was not able to work any longer. A very special “thank you” to all of her caregivers and hospice, which allowed her to remain in her home, during her illness.

She is survived by her son, Ted (Wanda Lee) Stanbrough of Moses Lake, Washington; granddaughter, India Stanbrough; and close friend and caregiver, Ellen (Dan) Lewis of Sandpoint, Idaho; and her cat, Sweetie.

She was preceded in death by her parents; and her daughter, Tina.
