So sorry to hear of Tim’s passing.  He was a rock to his family and gave so much of himself for their health and happiness.  You can tell by his memorial video that he loved and was loved.  My condolences to Kathy and the kids and to everyone in his family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the whole family..I can remember when my son did the JB football camp for the first time..He wasn't so sure about it in the beginning but that all changed and he enjoyed it. We have lots of fond memories. What stands out most was the whole Pisoni family always being there helping in many different ways..JJ was always by Tim's side and her playing gave my daughter the wish of playing too...My sons school didnt have football so he turned to soccer and after graduating High School it's now Rugby..Tim's legacy will live on through his children,  may God Bless them all...

My favorite memory of Tim was when we went down to Arkansas and had pancakes to eat everyday for breakfast. Tim was a great man was the one who convinced me to play football and I wish I could still thank him is a very great man , father, and coach..... fly high coach ❤️

I met Tim at the gas station I worked at for 5 years which is about how long I knew him. He always had a smile on his face when talking to him. He will be greatly missed. My condolences to his entire family! 

I met Tim when his sister Vicky and I worked at Burger King way back when.  He was reintroduced into my life over 20 years ago by his brother in law, Pete Kopsky.  Tim came to work for me  and my brother at Servpro of Arnold over 10 years ago.  Not only was he our friend, hew was a true asset to  our business.  He always had a smile to share and a fantastic attitude.  Tim never complained and was always ready to pitch in, his words were always “Whatever you need me to do boss”.  Anytime I ran into someone who knew Tim, they all said the same thing “What a great guy”.   I have so many great memories and I was honored to call him my friend.  He was an OUTSTANDING father and husband, but anyone who knew him already knows that.  We miss you like crazy buddy, I will never forget you.  

I am proud to say that Tim is my brother in-law.  A couple of years ago I asked Tim how he met my sister, Kathy.  Tim explained that he was at a soccer game,  and began watching the game on the next field.  He couldn't take his eyes off the most beautiful athlete he ever saw, it was Kathy.  That was when he knew that she was the one.  The rest is history of an amazing family called THE PISONIS.

Most of us would agree that a good measure of a person is how their kids turn out.  In all my years of coaching, I have yet to hear or see anything bad from a Pisoni athlete.     They are all respectful, hard working, and well mannered.  You can't ask for anything more.  It is very evident that Mr. and Mrs. Pisoni have done a great job.  I will always remember him hanging around the finish line with a word of encouragement to all the athletes around.  I will never forget when Jake had ran 3 races in about 20 minutes, and had to go high jump.  Jake was gassed and rubber legged and Mr. Pisoni gave him a yell of "be tough and get over there and jump boy".    And off he went.  God bless the Pisoni family.  

I witnessed Tim as a coach for several years and he had so much faith in the abilities of the kids he coached, even when they didn't quite have the confidence in themselves that he had in them.  Tim was not only an asset to our community and the football program, he was a great mentor and made a difference in the lives of many kids, aside from his own.  He leaves behind a legacy that will be difficult to match.  I know the kids he coached will honor that legacy and make him proud.  

My favorite memory of Tim Pisoni is him showing so much appreciation and love to the young football programs of Fox, the man dedicated his life to his family and work for the community. He will forever be missed and loved!

Although I have football memories as most people do, my memories are a bit different being his neighbor and getting to see another side of him. There’s 3 that always stand out to me. We had just recently moved in and I didn’t know the Pisoni’s all that well yet when Tim came walking by my house while I was painting my front door (two different colors splattered on so I could decide) so when I saw him I asked which one he thought was best. He looked completely shocked that I had asked this man I didn’t yet know what his favorite was. I’ll never forget the look on his face followed by that huge smile he’s so famous for. I went with his color choice. My other favorite memory is, and will be the hardest to not witness this summer, is driving by seeing him on his riding lawn mower usually in his yellow “muscle shirt” and he’d never fail to wave. The last of my favorite memories is when I was walking the dog and he stopped me to talk football and plays when I finally had to say, “Tim I have no idea what you’re talking about so I’ll send Jake down”. We had a good laugh and again that big smile is burnt in my mind. 

Tim was my sons first football Coach and honestly I hadn’t realized his impact until I seen my sons post on here as I came to post! My sons dad isn’t present so I appreciate with my whole heart Coach for being a man my son looked up to! Rest easy Coach Pisoni your Mark has been left and you’ll always be remembered! #WarriorPrideNeverDies
God be with the Pisoni family ❤️❤️❤️

I remember the absolute joy Tim felt when he was on the roof with the boys putting up Christmas lights.  Just a big kid at heart. We will miss him terribly. 

I have so many great memories of him and I can’t even imagine to pick my favorite one but one of the ones I really like is the time he came to our lunch at elementary and Tim was trying to get all the kids to play football he didn’t care about there size just if they were interested in football he would let them play he just wanted everyone to at least get a chance to play this is the guy Tim was always like he gave me so many great opportunities and taught me so much at one point I basically lived at his house and he welcomed me this was the person he always was

My first touchdown,, I begged coach all week to let me play FB in the Seckman game and he told me when I was ready. Finally towards the end of the game I asked coach if I could get one run in and he asked if I was ready? I responded yes sir and he patted me on the back and said “go run them boys over” as I came out of the line I looked over to see coach jumping up and down and sprinting down the sideline with me. Thank you coach you meant more than you know Reat in peace. 

I met Tim and Kathy and their awesome family through my boyfriend Pete Kopsky one of Kathy's brothers. He was the very meaning of a Family man, if you looked up the term in a dictionary I believe it would have a picture of Tim. His family and coaching was everything to him and you could tell it was his true calling. Behind every great man and Father is a great Wife and kids and they are and he was and Tim Pisoni's memory will live on.

Tim was truly a gift to the community, I will miss his smiling face stopping by my office. It was always a pleasure when he would drop by while working, just to check in and see how I was doing. I know that he was an exceptional customer service person, and I also know that the thing he was most proud of was his wonderful family. Rest In Peace, Tim

I only knew Tim personally the past five years.  I heard of him prior to that due to his impeccable reputation as a person and football coach.  He started coaching Ev when he was in 6th.  I had the pleasure to help coach with Tim  Bob, Charlie and Gene for two years.  Tim was at home coaching and teaching the boys.  He always had a smile on his face and would always ask about others.

I will miss this coach and friend.  His smile and having a Monster in his hand was always contagious.  RIP my friend.  You will be sorely missed but never forgotten.  To the Pisoni family, you will continue to be in mine and my families prayers.

Alex, and Brittany both worked at McArthur's bakery. Then Kathy started working with us here a couple years ago, and that is how we all met Tim. We have all became close over the years.
Tim,Kathy and the kids are all so sweet and kind, and are willing to do what they can to help a friend in need, (I know because they have offered several times to me and others around me). Tim was such a strong, hard working, loving father and husband, and all his kids and the kids he coached looked up to him.  He was such a fighter throughout this Cancer battle. He will truly be missed by many, but will never be forgotten.  
We all Love you,
Your Bakery Family

Tim was a huge influence in Brock’s life.   He was his very first football coach. Tim helped us discover Brock’s abilities.   Fast forward some years and now Jake, Luke and Brock are all on the same team.   Tim was a kind man that loved his family and extended football family.   We will never forget him and his infectious smile.
