William Joseph Wiseman III

I am just now finding out that Mr. Wiseman passed away. I am truly sorry. I send his family my prayers.

To the family, I extend my sincere condolences.
When I received the news my heart wept. Mr. Wiseman was, in all my years in education, a Principal like no other.
To his daughters, I am grateful to have witnessed the love and compassion your dad had for you. May the peace of God be with you both as you go through these next weeks and months. You will be in my daily prayers

To the family, may God’s peace be with you To his daughters I pray for strength and I was able to witness the unconditional love he had for you.
Mr. Wiseman, for me, will ALWAYS be the best Principal of all times.

I'm lucky to have met Bill several years ago when he was the First Vice President of the Friends of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Museum (F-of PNSM). As F-of-PNSM Secretary, Bill and I worked together a lot, as I picked up his Membership duties. Everybody I ever met who know him really seemed to like him. I sure did. He was my neighbor and friend. My prayers are with him and I believe that he will live on in me.

Mr. Wiseman was my principal for many years. He knew how to lead a staff and let them know he trusted them as professionals. He could be serious when needed, but could joke with us too! I learned a lot about leadership working for him and he will be missed! RIP my friend! Your girls are my in my prayers!

Billy has been my friend since high school. We did our French homework together nightly at our house. My parents loved him. Later—much later—Billy became my Mom’s Principal at Westhaven Elementary after Mr. Hardin retired! (She taught First Grade there—Margaret Miller).
Ironic, isn’t it. Missing you already...
