William Carl Roll

Dearest Hope, I think of you often as I remembered that June would be hard for you. Please reach out anytime. Lots of love, Jerri

I didn't know Bill but was close to Hope at the University of Georgia.

Hope, I am so sorry to read about Bill's death. You've suffered tremendous losses these last couple of years. I pray you can feel a sense of peace from God, knowing that Bill is in a better place and reserving a spot for you. I pray for peace and comfort for you and your children.

We met Bill and knew him by his smile and handshake to all. God bless his family.

From his Bible Study Fellowship class: Bill was an exemplary leader and class member. He brought an easy laugh, a deep love of Jesus Christ, and a humility that characterized his inner spirit. During his recent struggle he made it clear it was a biological battle and it only added resolve to his spiritual strength. God speed brother - you will be missed deeply. And as we always say in truth, "See you later".
Ed Wood, Teaching Leader

My favorite time spent with Bill was when he was building our my son's playroom. Bill and Hope had just had their first child and my son was born just a few months before Wesley. It was so helpful sharing our baby stories and the new life of parenthood. We ended up being neighbors at the Ford Plantation and Oh My Gosh, it was so fun hanging out with the Roll family and Bill's infectious, happy, fun and always entertaining self. He was a true blessing to our family and such a great support to me during a difficult time. Love, Laurie, Parker and Andrew.

Bill's warm, genuine smile and winning ways will be so deeply missed, not only by us, but by the entire Ford community who were blessed to know him. His wife and amazing family are a testament to the man we knew. I can almost hear the angels singing as they welcomed him into heaven. Our hearts are with his family.

Roll Family- Ellen, William and I were so saddened to hear of Bill's passing. He was a special man who enriched the lives of others. No doubt, this is a very difficult time, but thankfully he has left a legacy of family, friends, and good deeds which will live on eternally.

Its not my first, but it is my best memory of Bill--our dove hunting trip to Argentina in 2012. Bill was full of life and adventure, no matter the journey. I will miss him. Scott Powell

Hope, I am in shock and can't imagine your sadness. Bill had the most welcoming and endearing smile. This will live on thru his children and grand children. May Jesus fill your Holy Spirit with peace and strength during this very difficult loss. I wish I could hug you

I had the pleasure of spending time with Bill on two separate occasions. Once at Matt and Maggie's beautiful wedding and another as Matt's guest at The Ford member/guest tournament. What I will always remember about Bill is his generosity, sense of humor.

The evenings at the Ford after long days on the course talking, laughing, making bets, and arguing over which Super Bowl National Anthem was the best of all time are memories I will always look upon fondly.

I responded to a baby sitting posting when I attended Rollins College back in 1990. This is how I met The Rolls. I am so sad to hear about Bill's passing.
