Meeting Bill was a true privilege, a fantastic and wonderfully kind gentleman whom I will always remember. It was wonderful having the opportunity to work with him and learn from him on a number of projects over the years. I am sorry I will not be able to attend his service, I send my condolences for Mark and the whole family.

Bill Lindberg took many, many photos of Hamilton Operatic Society productions over the years. I have many in a photo album of those happy days. He was a brilliant photographer capturing the joy and excitement of the big shows we did. I remember him always as a consummate professional, talented and kind.

Condolences to family and friends of Bill. I worked for Bill and Joy in the early 1980's in his Rostrevor Street studio. Thanks Bill for your skill and enthusiasm with your craft, being a great boss and a fair man.

Dear Yvonne, Mark, Julia and families,
Bill was a remarkable man. He and Joy employed me out of High School many years ago. He made a lasting impression on me. I was pleased to catch up with Bill in the last 10 years. Rest peacefully Bill!
Sending love and thoughts to you all. Kate Church

Bill was a regular customer at our dairy on River Rd during the 70s, he took our wedding photos in 1976 and the first studio photos of our baby son later the following year, he was a lovely man and he will always be remembered by his pictorial legacy in the Waikato, RIP Bill

As a photographic representative in the 1970s, I had the privilege of working with Bill during some of the most formative years of my career. He was an extraordinarily gifted portrait and commercial photographer; a true craftsman whose eye, discipline and artistry set a standard many aspired to.
Yet what made Bill truly special was not just his professional brilliance, but the man himself. He was unfailingly kind, thoughtful, and generous with his time. He carried a warm sense of humour and treated everyone; clients, colleagues, and young reps like me with respect and encouragement.
Bill was also ahead of his time. He was one of the first established professionals to embrace digital photography, he mastered it with the same excellence that defined all his work, becoming one of NZ´s finest digital photographers.
Above all else, Bill was a Good Man.
Our love and deepest sympathy to Yvonne and all of Bill´s family.
Julie & Ken Williamson

49 years ago I worked for Bill and Joy in the Rostrevor Street studio.
Bill managed to capture elegance in every person he photographed. A very talanted photographer.
