Wesley ROLLIS Obituary

July 11, 1933 - May 31, 2025

Wesley Gene Rollis passed away peacefully on May 31st, 2025, with his daughter, Caroline by his side. He was 91 years old. Wesley was born in Spokane, WA on July 11, 1933. He grew up in Post Falls, ID. As a young man, he worked digging wells, logging, and driving semi-trucks. While his children were young, he worked as a mechanic so he could be home in the evening and weekends with his family. After his children grew up, he went back to driving semis and drove semi-trucks until he was 78 years old. Wesley was an avid motorcycle rider and loved to share his passion for the sport with family and friends. Wesley worked hard and played hard. Being a truck driver gave him time to perfect his pool playing skills, and he had the best time teaching his children and grandchildren how to play pool as well. Wesley Gene Rollis is survived by, six children, ten grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren and three great-great grandchildren. He was a wonderful father, husband, brother, uncle, grandfather and friend.
