Steve W. Savage

I think about you, I care about you, I pray for you in my heart.

I am shocked and so sad to hear of Steve's passing. I've never met a more dedicated colleague who promoted the inclusion of individuals with disabilities. He will be missed, but his spirit will live on in all of us. My thoughts and prayers to his family.

I worked with Steve while working with the IPS schools. He showed such love, concern, and dedication to our students with special needs. He was the finest man and I extend my deepest sympathies to his family.

RIP my friend.

Steve was an incredible man. I had the privilege of working with him many times over the past several years. This news was very sad. Peace and strength to you during this difficult time. You now have an amazing guardian angel watching over you.

I have had the pleasure of working with Steve through his contract with the Indianapolis Public Schools for many years. Steve could make any difficult situation more tolerable through his wit, humor and tenacity for resolution. His knowledge of services for young adults with disabilities was the best resource anyone could access. I looked forward to any planning meeeting if Steve were involved as I knew we would accomplish our mission and have a great time getting there. Steve's...

A friend since he showed up at Marshall grade school around 1960. Had a great sense for adventure that drove him to explore the nooks and crannies of the world around him. Always good natured, curious and smart. Many, many, great memories.
