William "Bill" E. Chillas, 79, of Lancaster, PA passed away at home on Saturday, June 5, 2021. Born in Chester County, PA, he was the son of the late Elsie E. (Popjoy) and Wayne W. Chillas.

Bill was an attorney in Lancaster for over 50 years. He was a graduate of Lycoming College in 1963 and Villanova University School of Law in 1967, where he also served on the Law Review. Bill previously attended the First United Methodist Church. He was very active in the Lancaster community, including support for Meals on Wheels, the Office of Aging, and the American Cancer Society.
