jobs that ended when his employer shut down before he found job security

"That was in 1991.
"Bishop, now 87, has been working on the grounds crew of the country's second oldest garden cemetery ever since. He has no plans to stop anytime soon."
A recent Bangor Daily News article profiled Mr. Bishop and his ministry at the Mount Hope Cemetery in Bangor, Maine.
