William Byland Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Bill was born on November 22, 1956 in Warren, OH, the son of Harold and Thelma (Meyers) Byland.
Bill was a 1974 graduate of Warren G. Harding High School and went on to have an extensive career in photography. First at Teach Out camera shop, then as the owner and operator of Byland Photo Lab on Elm Road. Bill was also a projectionist at the Elm Road Drive In. He later worked for the Warren tribune as a dock worker.
Outside of work, Bill enjoyed side photography gigs, cars and doing house projects. He was always working on something and, even if he might have broken in it the first place, he was always able to fix it. Bill was a jack of all trades and an excellent handyman to have around. Bill's loving presence will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
Bill will always be remembered by his wife of 37 years, Carol (Lesko) Byland of Warren; son, Matt Byland of Warren; sisters-in-law, Annie Peterson of Warren and Karen McClung of Warren; brother-in-law, Joseph Lesko of Michigan and many nieces and nephews.
Besides his parents, Bill was preceded in death by his brother-in-law, David Peterson.
