There are several men who rose to the office of President of the US but were not elected to it. Gerald Ford is the only man who was not elected to either the office of President or Vice President though.

The President is the primary one.
None of the individuals who were elected as President died before taking office. William Henry Harrison was sworn in and died 31 days later.
