Edward Maurice “Mike” Savage
1946-2022
The family of Mike Savage are saddened to announce his
passing at the Veterans Health Unit, after a period of declining
health, on June 19th, 2022. Born in
Fredericton, NB, on October 4th, 1946, Mike was
the son of the late Georgia “Jo” (Cole) and J. Raymond
Savage.
Mike is survived by his sons Raymond (Alana) and Ryan
(Karen); grandsons Dominik, Jackson, Dane and Hudson; sisters Barbara
Stratmoen (David), Colleen Savage and Mary McDonald; brothers Reginald
Savage (Carolyn) and Daniel Savage; long-time companion and friend
Shirley Paul.
Mike joined the military in 1968, and after several postings,
he retired as a Flight Engineer with 403 Squadron in 1987. Following
his retirement from active duty, Mike pursued various careers and
discovered his true passion – politics! Mike served on Oromocto Town
Council from 1990 to 2004, including several years as Deputy
Mayor.
While in the military, Mike took part in many sports and
became an avid golfer and curler in his later years. Hunting was a
passion of Mike’s and he spent many enjoyable seasons at the
hunting camp. Mike was known as a real joke teller and could always be
seen with a smile on his face and a beer in his hand. He will be
deeply missed by all who knew him.
Please join us in celebrating Mike’s life
Wednesday, June 29, 2022 at 1:00 pm at J.A. McAdam Memorial Chapel,
160 York Street Fredericton, NB, with Fr. Peter Osborne officiating. A
Royal Canadian Legion Branch 93 tribute will be held prior to the
service at 12:45 pm. For those unable to attend, a live stream of the
service will be available at vimeo.com/event/2234165.
The family wishes to invite you to a reception following the service
that will also be held at J.A. McAdam Memorial Chapel. A private
interment will take place at the Hermitage Catholic Cemetery following
the reception.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Mike’s memory may
