RIP Bill Bird, NYC Photographer

from his Facebook Page

William David Bird, 46, passed away on Saturday, August 20, 2011 after a courageous battle with cancer. Bill was raised in North Plainfield and was residing in Hillsborough. Bill’s lifelong passion was photography. He was an exceptional photographer, and used this skill to professionally photograph brides, events, celebrities, and athletes, but got his greatest enjoyment photographing his family. He received degrees from the International Center of Photography and the School of Visual Arts, both located in Manhattan. He also worked for Stavola Construction. He is predeceased by his parents William Donald Bird and Phyllis Theresa Bird. Bill is the beloved husband of Delia Bird and cherished father of Alessandra (Allie) Phyllis Bird, 8, and William Gregory Bird, 6. He was a wonderful husband, father, brother, uncle, cousin and friend. Bill had the kindest heart and sweetest disposition and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Bill will be missed. He was always smiling, always kind.
