ARDISSON WILLIAM J. 79, of Ligonier, died peacefully at his home, surrounded by his family, Saturday, March 15, 2014. Bill was born in Delmont, PA, September 12, 1934, the son of the late Adam and Lena Meneghin Ardisson. He was preceded in death by a son, Terry Ardisson; and a stepsister, Peggy Meneghin Cavalier. Prior to his retirement, he was an electrical contractor for 50 years. His electrical expertise took him all over the country and as far away as Venezuela and most recently, Puerto Rico. Bill was an avid hunter, fisherman and sailor. Some of his happiest moments were spent sailing the Chesapeake Bay and hunting the mountains of Colorado and Wyoming. He enjoyed farming, building and spending time with his friends at the Wagon Wheel restaurant in Delmont. A neighbor once said that Bill was never happy unless he had saw dust in his hair. Always a good friend, he would drop whatever he was doing to help someone in need. Bill is survived by his wife of 40 years, Joan (Ondrejko) Ardisson; a daughter, Susan Ardisson and her husband, Joseph Decker of Mt. Lebanon; a son, Scott Ardisson and his wife, Rachel Blair of Pittsburgh; two grandchildren, Ryan Decker of Baltimore, Maryland and Alison Decker of Mt. Lebanon; a sister, Sylvia (Barry) Bunshoft of San Francisco; a brother-in-law, John (Debbie) Ondrejko of Johnstown; stepsister, Ginny Meneghin Snyder of Allentown; a nephew, Adam Bunshoft; and nieces, Jenny Bunshoft, Jenny Huskey, Rene May, and Amy Cernik. At Bill's request, there will be no memorial service. Instead, we ask that you take a moment to remember how he lived and how he touched your life. Interment is private. Memorial contributions, if desired, may be made in Bill's memory to Excela Health Hospice, 142 Industrial Park Road, Greensburg, PA 15601.
