Mary, Brian, Janice and family:

Doc was a great doctor and friend. I so appreciate all the care that he gave my family all those years and have missed him since he retired. Having lost our daughter, Cris, last year, I know the pain you are all feeling. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

He was my grandpa and acted as a father at times! He was a sweet old man and I miss him every single day...i wish he was here!

Dear Savage Family,
What a special dad you had; what a special town Doc Azle Had. Our hearts and prayers go out to you all. It would only be fitting for Azle to erect a memorial to Doctor Savage, a kind and loving man, husband, father and town doctor. Maybe Harris NW will erect a statue of Doc Savage at the entry to the hospital - it would be most fitting and a great tribute to a great man. He will be dearly missed.

To the Savage family -
I know there is no doubt in any of your minds that Dr Savage is loved by all. He was a nurturing, compassionate doctor, proud of his children and grandchildren and a friend to all. He would make the time to listen no matter how long it might take. Azle certainly will never be as bright again without out the warmth he always gave so freely.

Doc Savage will be greatly missed by the Sneaky 10 Golf Group. Our prayers and condolences to the family.

Our condolences to the Savage family - what a GREAT man and family doctor. Azle will never be the same without him. He will certainly go down in Azle history.
Our thoughts & prayers,
The Burton Family

To the Savage Family: It is with deepest regret that I read about 'Our Doctor' in the Star Telegram. He was a great man throughout all the years that I and my family knew him. He gave me and my wife our medical exam before we married some 53 years ago and he delivered our three boys He was always there to treat anyone at any time he was needed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Doc's family. Joe Richardson, Taylor, Texas

Brian,
So sorry to hear about the passing of your Dad. I remember how funny and upbeat he always was and how he enjoyed life! I especially remember how proud he was of you. I know you have lots of great memories with your dad, and I pray those get you thru this sad time.Sincerely, Kim Bateman-Bue

Dr. Savage cared for me as a child and I worked with him for years as a nurse. He was a remarkable man and a compassionate doctor. His contribution to the health and well being of our community can never be measured or repaid. This great doctor treated everyone he met with kindness and respect, no matter their station in life. The world will not be the same without him, but it comforts me to know that he is now golfing and sharing stories with The Great Physician! I'm so glad I'll see...
