Obituary for William John Albert "Jack" Savage

William John Albert "Jack"  Savage
William John (Jack) Savage passed away peacefully at Southlake Regional Health Centre in Newmarket on Saturday May 14, 2016, in his 84th year. He was totally devoted to his wife of 65 years , Joyce (nee Storm) and was the beloved father of Patricia (Doe), Lorraine (DePaulo), Robert (Patty) and Kenneth, and the very proud grandfather of three granddaughters – Sarah, Krista and Erika. Jack was the eldest of six children and is survived by his sisters Joyce (Costea) and Carol and pre-deceased by his sisters Anita (Giroux), Jeanette (Taylor) and his brother Barry. He was the dear son of Dorothy Violet (Hanes) and Archibald John Savage. Jack started his working life as a member of the Royal Canadian Air Force and then joined IBM where he retired after a long and distinguished career. Jack’s main dedication was to his family – he always focussed on what would be best for them in everything that he did. His other love was his music. Starting while he was in the RCAF, he enjoyed 60 years as an amateur musician with the Newmarket Citizen’s and Alliston bands as well as his own jazz band – “The Zephyr’s”. Special thanks go to the caring staff at Southlake who were a significant help during his last days. His wishes were to leave us quietly and without fanfare, but if desired, memorial donations can be made to the Canadian Diabetes Association online at www.diabetes.ca. Online condolences may be made at www.roadhouseandrose.com
