We met Paul a few years ago on a cruise trip and it was like we had known him for years, he was so nice to us and we all just hit it off. Paul was a good man and friend. we truly enjoy when he came to Ohio for a visit and loved the talks and laughs he shared. He was a wonderful caring person and we both enjoyed being one of his many many friends, he truly will be miss. Love you, Dale and Jean Tice

1 Corinthians 10:13
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this time of loss. May God comfort all the family and friends during this season of grief.
May the Lord bless this family during this time of loss. Mr. Savage set a great example of what a father should be to his family. He will be missed by so many.
