William M. Roller, age 58, of Pine Twp., passed away peacefully on February 25, 2026, after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Born on September 23, 1967, son of the late Richard and Myrna Roller, he was a devoted husband, father, brother, and friend.
Bill will be remembered as a loving husband to his wife, Elaine, with whom he shared a blissful marriage since November 18, 1995. He was a cherished father to his daughters, Cassie (Tyler) and Tori, who will carry forward his legacy of kindness and dedication. He is also survived by his brother Ted (Lovie) and sister Suzanne (Keith), along with many nieces, nephews, and in-laws who loved him dearly. He was the son-in-law of Carol Chesleigh and the late Alan Chesleigh.
Bill grew up in Penn Hills and moved to Pine Twp. where he started his family. Bill frequently visited Chautauqua Lake with his parents and siblings, a tradition he later shared with his wife and daughters. He was an avid boater and loved being on the water, whether it was on the speed boat, the pontoon boat, or the jetski. He took his job as captain very seriously when the kids wanted to tube or waterski.
A visitation for family and friends will be held on Sunday, from 2-6 PM at Devlin Funeral Home of Cranberry Township. A Funeral Service will take place on Monday, at 1 PM at the funeral home, officiated by Pastor Ron Brown.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to Pancreatic Cancer Network or Hope Lutheran Church, Cranberry Twp.

My parents rented a cottage from the Rollers on Chautauqua Lake every summer as I was growing up, I remember a new baby one summer and got to see him grow as a fun child and then blessed to reconnect when we were both adults. It was wonderful to see him grow into such a loving, caring family man.
My sincere condolences to his family and friends.
I worked with Bill for years at GNC. He was a true good guy. Such a positive light and he somehow made difficult times at work that much more bearable. He will be greatly missed. So sorry for your loss.
Elaine and family,
I was so sorry to hear about your husband’s passing. I’m keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.

We met Bill when he was only a teenager, and agreed he was the kindest, friendliest, most helpful young man. He was very welcoming to the Dakin family and always made us feel like we were part of their family. We will remember fondly conversations on the cottage porch, boat rides on the lake, and enjoying the flares and campfires he set for us. We remember how happy he was when he met Elaine, and how his daughters were his pride and joy!
Cherish your memories of Bill and be forever grateful to have known this exceptional gentleman.
Working with Bill for many years, I’m saddened to hear of his passing but working closely with him during his last years with GNC, that his dedication to the job while facing this terrible disease was inspiring. His positive attitude and ability to persevere was humbling. Please know that there are many people deeply saddened by his loss but also grateful for the time we had him.
Elaine, Cassie and Tori,
So sorry to hear of the loss of your husband and father. Bill was the ultimate family man and always sent acholiday text every year and it is something I will miss for sure.

My strength and love to Elaine and family during this difficult time.
We got to know Bill and Elaine through our University of Dayton conneciton and their daughter Cassie and our daughter Katie. Bill was so very kind and I enjoyed our phone calls and texts as we talked about or families, sports and health challenges. I praise God for Bill’s prayers and encouragement. Two weeks before he passed my wife was in the hospital and he was reaching out to her encouranging her and praying for her. Bill “You have fought the good fight, you have finished the race and kept the faith.” You will be truly missed.
I am so thankful for Bill and Elaine, who welcomed this Texas girl and her daughter with wide open arms! No matter the day, time or reason, Bill was the neighbor I absolutely needed! His love for Elaine and the girls was always a beacon of hope for me and my kiddo! Bill, the Legacy you leave behind goes well beyond the four walls of your home! Thank you for loving like Jesus did!
Although I’m sad I also take comfort knowing that Bill is at rest and no longer in pain.
When I was working in the office Bill and I were often the first to be on the floor in the morning. We would often share a coffee and a bagel and discuss our children. Bill spoke with pride when speaking of his girls. I know he love his family greatly as they did him.
It was a pleasure working with him for 18 years. He was truly one of the good guys.
Prayers and comfort sent to the family in this difficult time. My sincerest condolences.
