Arthur T. "Art" Pisano

June 20, 1941 - January 16, 2021

Arthur T. Pisano, “Art”, of Liverpool and formerly Ft. Lauderdale, Florida passed away on Saturday, January 16, 2021 from complications of Covid-19 and pneumonia. He was born in Schenectady, NY, son of the late Benjamin and Celia Pisano and served in the U.S. Navy. As a youngster, Art loved cars, especially shiny and new and shared his passion with others. This combination turned out to be the perfect backdrop for Art's chosen profession, automobile salesperson. For the next sixty years, Art shared his love with his many friends and loyal fan base. Art spent his first twenty years selling Buicks for Pat Bombard Buick. He and Pat formed a close team that met with great success. Once you were Art's customer, you were his customer for life; after a sale, he followed his clients to ensure their happiness and satisfaction. Art's success could easily be seen in the many Gold Master Awards he received over the years and his long line of repeat customers. After a short break, Art returned to Syracuse and accepted an invitation from Jack Revelle and George Townsend to join Honda City. Before long, Art began to build his new client base; he talked and shared his passion. His success could be seen in the many awards that adorned the walls of Honda City. It is not often that a person can work for someone who encourages you to be the best that you can be, but that is exactly what happened for Art. For the next forty years, Art forged a close friendship with George Townsend and his career met with continued success. Art is survived by his brother, Frank (Carol) of Fla.; his sisters, Anita of Liverpool, and Barbara (Ken) Berkowitz of Ct.; his beloved nieces and nephews: Michele (Mark) Powers, North Syracuse, Mark Pisano, Fla., Nancy (Jeff) Gillette Gouin, Fla., Cynthia Berkowitz, Ct., and Jennifer Berkowitz, Ohio. In addition, Art is survived by his lifelong devoted friends: Donald Carulli, Syracuse, Brian Nichols, Syracuse, Jerry Burnette, Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, there will be no services at this time. Services will be at the convenience of the family. Art will be laid to rest in the family mausoleum at St. Mary's in DeWitt. In lieu of flowers, contributions in Art's name may be made to his favorite charity, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis Tn. 38105.
