Timothy "Tim" Piglia Jr.

Tim was a much-loved husband, son, brother, and friend. He graduated from Grace King High School in 2006 and entered the United States Navy in 2007 for a 5-year term of service. Tim was stationed on the USS Rushmore and received numerous awards and medals for his service to the country. After leaving the service, Tim attended the University of New Orleans and graduated (Cum Laude) with his Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Physiology. It was after graduation that Tim joined Freedom Trade International as an intern and met his future wife, Hannah. The two were fatefully married on December 31, 2018 in Alabama.

Tim was known for his humility, generosity, and servant’s heart. He was an extrovert and enjoyed being around people and music. If there was music playing, Tim was dancing. He loved to dance! Tim was a member of Restoration Church in New Orleans. His magnetic personality and passion for life remain as his legacy and while he will be sorely missed, he will never be forgotten.

Tim is survived by his loving wife Hannah Piglia; his parents Gaiana and Timothy Sr.; his siblings Addison Piglia, Garrett Piglia, and Rebecca Piglia; as well as countless friends.
