Wyatt, whose mother is Bird’s sister, said “memorable” photos – such as those from Bird’s 70th and 80th birthdays and those taken at Buckingham Palace when Bird picked up his OBE – would remain in the family.
Despite the two honours, Wyatt said Bird wished he had been knighted.
“That was his wish. I think he should have been, but there we go,” she added.
A year on from his death, Wyatt is now planning to honour one of Bird’s dying wishes and put his ashes inside the commemorative statue in Barnsley.
“There’s only one Dickie Bird, I don’t think there will be another.
“He was a lovely person, I went up to clean for him and took him meals. He was still down to earth, a Barnsley man.
“I’m just so proud, he put so much into his umpiring career and he was the best in the world.”
