| Hi William. I know you don't know me because I was born after you were killed, but i'm Chauntel's cousin. I just want to let you know that everybody misses you and wish you were still here. Your daughter is a person that you should be very proud of. She has a goal for her life, and she won't let nothing or nobody stop her. She has a picture of you that I like because you're dressed in white. I know I never met you, but I've heard good stories, and it sounds like you was a good man. | ||||

| After 20 years in the NYPD I forgot a lot of things. One of the things I will never forget was coming in for roll call that night and hearing the boss tell us Willie was killed. I remember him always smiling and laughing, one of the guys that made that job great back then. Rest in Peace. | ||||

| I knew William in NSU 7 back in the 48 22 years ago. Thought of him many times over the years. Though I only knew Will briefly, I could tell he had a good heart. RIP. | ||||

| What's up Will? It's Gary from the block. I can't believe how much time has passed since you left us. Reading the messages left for you, made me think back of the days on Webster, I remember see you growing up and being around your pops, but what shocked me more; was seeing you in court in uniform. Those were some good times back then, goofing and having a blast. I'm retired now and I don't miss the job, but what I do miss, are my friends and most of all; the ones who are no longer around, such as yourself. I hope that you are at peace, and may you continue to watch over you love one. | ||||

| I share the same sentiments as Joseph Jackson above, I always remember the smile and joking from Will. When I think about all of the many many people I met on the job, William Chisolm is always there smiling. R.I.P. | ||||
