He passed away suddenly on February 26, 2021. Puyo was a man of many talents, had a heart of gold, and was larger than life. His passions included: soccer refereeing, working on his cars, organizing classic car events, and spending time with family. He was a wonderful husband, father, and friend to many. He leaves behind his wife, Zora Zizich; son, Nikola Zizich; sister, Sonya Haviland; and Brother-in-law Chad Haviland. He was a wonderful Godfather and Uncle to many. Fly high, we love you.
Zora and Nik:
We are so very sorry to hear of your family’s loss. Our children are in the LZHS band with Nik, and our son Jack played rec soccer with Nik many moons ago. We remember your husband/father as an engaged and supportive soccer coach and enthusiast. No doubt he’ll be missed by many. We’re thinking of you during this difficult time.
We are so very sorry to hear of your loss. We are thinking of you both and the family at this most difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. PJ will surely be missed. We are so very heartbroken. We just saw PJ earlier this month and how very proud he spoke of you Nik with graduation and preparing for College. Peace be with you. Brenda Mike and Megan
We are so very shocked and saddened to learn your loss. We still vividly remember when we first met PJ, his enthusiastic, loving soccer coaching and support for both of our boys. I can still hear his cheering for all players during those games. We simply cannot believe that PJ is no longer with us.
He is in a better place now. Our deepest Condolences. Please take care.
Oliver Tang & Family
