Finnegan Hugh Roessler was taken from his earthly life by heavenly angels on Tuesday, June 13, 2017 from Children’s Hospital at the age of 6. When Finnegan was 2 ½, he was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, and his strength of character as a fighter was recognized. Born in Sewickley on May 11, 2011, beloved son of Russell and Carey (Gallagher) Roessler; adored grandson of Diane Gallagher and the late Hugh Gallagher, and Nancy Roessler and the late Harry Roessler; cherished great grandson of Shirley Gallagher; loved brother of Marc Gallagher; well-loved nephew of Patrick Gallagher (Cindy), Charles Roessler (Bobbie Jo) and Heather Santek (Eric); also, several nieces and nephews, and many loving great aunts and uncles. Finnegan was a life-long resident of Moon Township and attended preschool at St. James School. He will be remembered as a gentle soul who loved animals, video games and swimming. He was cherished and "something special" to so many, bringing joy wherever he went. As he was greatly loved, so shall he be greatly missed. We are grateful for our precious time with him even though our hearts are heavy.
