Dear Pisoni Family - Your father was an excellent Civics teacher and an exceptionally good basketball coach. I will always remember that at the end of every halftime break, in the locker room, he would lead us in The Memorare prayer in honor Our Blessed Mother. He touched many lives in a very positive way. He and all of you will be remembered in my daily Rosary and Mass. My Deepest Sympathy,
