Not sure what to say?

This is a message from Garcia. (Saul would get the joke.) I will forever remember Saul. He was a force to be reckoned with and had a tremendous effect and impact on my life. The lessons I learned from him still carry me to this day. He was wise, quick-witted, and didn't have time for any nonsense. Saul was loyal and honest, and the agency he created with Joe are a testament to his character and soul. I wonder how surprised he would be to know how much he is missed and remembered.

Dear Saul, "A Message from Garcia" .... I'm so grateful that you welcomed me into the Waring & LaRosa family back in 1975. I still have friendships that are thriving from that wonderful staff that you and Joe assembled, and there are many times where I would have welcomed your wisdom and advice. You are sorely missed as a mentor and as a friend.

I will always remember Saul to be one of the smartest and most caring people I ever met in the ad business. I was proud to have worked at Waring & LaRosa.

He set the standard for everything worthwhile in a person, a friend, an employer, a mentor, a man.

Saul I will miss you. Not many have had such blessings that you have had in your life you deserved them all. W&L the best job & the best people I ever worked with. Thanks to you & Joe.

In an industry with a reputation for ruthlessness, Saul, along with his life-long Friend and business partner, Joe LaRosa, shattered the sterotypical advertising "Mad Men" image and instead proved that you can succeed by treating people with respect and compassion, qualities that these "Mild Men" passionately exhibited throughout their careers. I was privileged to work for, and with Saul, learning much about the creative process in my years ay Waring & LaRosa... We are all better for knowing...

Saul Waring was a great Shepherd, who's life was a constant act of kindness to his beloved family and friends. I have the great good fortune to experience his kindness and for that I am grateful.
Thank you, Saul!

Sending my condolences to the family at this difficult time. I was very sad to hear this news. I worked at Waring & LaRosa for 12 years, and Saul made it a wonderful place to work. With sincere sympathy....

As Saul's life light grew dimmer his spiritual light grew stronger in each of the hearts of those he touched. My prayers are with Willa, Janet, Rob, Don A, and extended family and friends.
