Billy Chapin

Billy Chapin; a true star actor, from a great era in Hollywood.
Way underrated. We owe this artist a debt of gratitude.

Just viewed 'The Night of the Hunter.' Kudos on your performance, Billy. RIP

Your movies brought me a lot of joy. RIP.

I enjoyed him as an actor. We had an old portable black and white tv that got 2.5 channels with rabbit ears. I would sneak out of bed in the night to watch reruns of The Kid from Left Field. The show had to be 14 years old by then. I was only about 5 or 6 years old in 1966. We were broke this was my entertainment and babysitter. Billy and many others helped to fill my imaginary world with happiness if only for a little while. Peace

My condolences to the family. I can remember his characters played. May the God of Comfort, continue to comfort the family

To Bill Chapin,
You were a very talented actor. I enjoyed wstching you on the comedy series Father knows best. My prayers are with you. Mr. Chapin. Lisa Weiner

So terribly sad to hear of the passing of Billy Chapin. Only saw "Night of the Hunter" for the first time in 2014. It was a very enchanting movie and Billy was very compelling in what was effectively the lead role, although he did not receive any special recognition in the credits. I thought he stole the movie from everyone, even Robert Mitchum, who also gave a great performance. Even sadder to hear of Billy's financial difficulties late in life and I wish I knew sooner and maybe I could have...

Billy was a great actor, and forever will be my favourite actor. I will never forget Billy. Even if we've never met before, I miss him very much. I pray that Billy is in peace. I love you Billy, you will never be forgotten.
