Randall "Randy" Andrew Pisarich Sr.

Mr. Randall Andrew Pisarich Sr, age 57, of Biloxi, MS, passed away on Wednesday, November 25, 2015. Randy was born on September 9, 1958 in Biloxi and grew up in West Biloxi on State Street. Although he suffered kidney failure at an early age, endured dialysis for 28 years and more recently cancer, he never the less did not let his physical problems discourage him from pursuing many jobs, occupations and business ventures. Before his kidney failure he worked offshore and received accolades for his performance. He later started a lawncare maintenance business and a construction company. He also suffered from severe arthritis. Although handicapped he built his own house. Randy was a fighter and he loved music. Although he had very little quality of life for 28 years and suffered many health problems, he never gave up and always fought on. He became very religious later in life and always has his Bible nearby. His hobbies included recording and listening to Jazz music, repairing all types of engines and working on his property. Randy was preceded in death by his sister, Karen Pisarich, grandparents, John and Amanda Pisarich and Ione Diddlemeyer. Survivors include his son, Randall Andrew Pisarich Jr, grandson, Carter Pisarich, mother, Virgie Pisarich Ridgeway, father and stepmother, Bobby and Cynthia Pisarich, stepson, Shannon (Kaly) Tiblier, two sisters, Courtney (Todd) Peltier and Kim (Karl) Hager, three brothers, Robbie Pisarich, Joseph (Belinda) Pisarich and Todd (Danielle) Pisarich. The Pisarich family is very proud of Randy's accomplishments and he will be greatly missed. So many thanks to the physicians and nurses at Fresenius Medical Center in D'Iberville for keeping Randy as comfortable as possible for 28 years and to Gentiva Hospice for their love, care and support. The family also owes a great deal of gratitude to his soulmate and passionate caregiver, Martha Broussard. Words cannot describe her dedication to comfort Randy in his last days.
