He was the epitome of 'a good example' to all his young cousins. Hard-working and ethical. Loved patriarch of his large tribe and all who knew him. Love to all the family from the Aussie cousins. xxx

It felt like an earthquake, and I'm still feeling the shock waves, since I learned of Bernards' passing. Deepest sympathy to Ann, Michael/Kelly, Carmel/George, Nicola/Hamish, Luke/Lyndal, extended Bird family & friends. Bernard was a gentleman, dedicated husband and great family man. I will miss his e-mails with all the family news & achievements of his grandchildren. He was so proud of you all. My thoughts and prayers are with you today, I'll be there in spirit. Mass will be celebrated here for Bernard, and prayers to ease your loss. May his gentle soul rest in Peace. His friendship and kindness will never be forgotten.

So sorry to hear the sad news of Bernard´s death. Have some great memories of a school trip (Lukes last year at St Jos) to Te Papa / it was a memorable few days! And then working with Bernard and Ann on St Jos school reunion / think we all enjoyed that time!
Am sorry we can´t make it to the service but thinking of you all at this time. RIP Bernard
