Michael Savage Obituary

Michael Craig Savage

Age 57, Michael passed away March 30, 2019, in Kent, WA, of heart disease. He was born on March 30, 1962 in Seattle to Richard and Ruth Savage. He graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School in Auburn in 1981.

He is survived by his brother, Rick Savage (Kathi), sister, Lorri Bagby (Keane), and nephew, Ian Savage (Aisha). He was preceded in death by his parents.

Michael could go toe-to-toe with any comedian in the world. He had a way of making everyone feel comfortable. He was full of light and wit. Per his wishes there will be no service.

We love you and will miss you Mickey Craig.

From the first time we met at the Midway tavern, you gave me nothing but love and laughter. You were there for me when I had heart surgery and when I lost my parents. You always gave me a shoulder to cry on. I'm glad I was able to be with you 2 days before your birthday. I will never forget you. I miss you Sweety.

Michael I know you are in heaven and having a great time. It was great working with you at Sportsworld. We would call to the front desk when you were busy and ask you to page someone e.g. Anita Butts and you would announce it over the PA. It was so fun working the after grad parties with you. You made work fun! I loved running into you at Fred Meyer where you always greeted me with a bear hug! You are truly an expert at movie and music trivia, no one could beat you! Love you Michael, til we meet again.

Love Vicki McGee

Met Mike when he came to work at Sportsworld. He was always a character and fun to be around. All the Junior League Bowlers could relate to him. Loved having him work the desk during Jr League.

You are loved

He was probably one of the funniest people I ever knew growing up and I'm sorry to hear he's gone.

What do you share when you have so many to great memories to choose amongst. From taking a bus to downtown Seattle to see Alien in 70mm opening weekend, the numerous sleepovers, avoiding getting caught for the silly things we would conspire to do, and shared discoveries-sushi, calamari, electric ice tea. Hanging out at Sea-Tac Mall and Mike unable to resist the fries at the Wagon Wheel and I always dropping at least one quarter at the Gold Mine. In High School writing and occasionally acting out short stories together and later getting a late night call, Hey Al, I need I ride. ( I got you buddy, where you at?)

Either one of us could give a look and we knew exactly what it meant and where we would go with it. He never judged and he always understood me. So many more shared history floods my heart, but I like to think of this one, one of the firsts that Mike left in my 9th-grade Totem yearbook, I'm everyone I've ever loved.
