A.L. Savage

A.L. Savage, age 73, born March 16, 1941, passed away peacefully in his sleep on the night of February 1, 2105. He was retired from the TN Dept. of Employment Security. He was a member of the Maryville Church of Christ. Restricted by Parkinson's disease for over ten years, A.L. longed to be at church and had a passion for golf. His angel here on earth, best buddy, and one of many loving caretakers at Brakebill Nursing Home, Carol, surrounded him with as many golf related opportunities as possible. Special thanks to friends at King's Academy who kept in touch over the years. He was preceded in death by his parents, Lewis and Dora Lee Savage; son, Michael T. Savage; and brother, Dale Savage. He is survived by his son, Jeff Savage (Lauri); daughter, Jennifer Miller (Roy); and grandchildren Garett & Grayson Savage, and Madeline Miller; and a sister, Eva Evertte (Joe). In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to the Cole Neuroscience Center/University of Tennessee Hospital/Dr. John Doughtery, 865-305-6611. The family will receive friends from 2-3 pm Tuesday at Mynatt Funeral Home Fountain City Chapel. Private graveside services will be held in McMinnville, Tennessee.
