SAVANNAH - Llewellyn T. Savage, 75, died Sunday, February 6, 2011 at Spanish Oaks Retreat in Savannah.

Lew was a member of the Mayflower Society, the Sons of the American Revolution and the Landings Club. He enjoyed fishing and golf as well as estate and garage sales, collecting antique watches and clocks. Lew will always be remembered for his zest for life, quick wit, and love of music.

Wishing I would have known Lew, he sounded like a kind soul. May the Lord comfort his entire family, even as the years pass.

My sympathy and condolences to the family. It has been many years ago, but I have fond memories of Lew when we worked together at Xerox in Albuquerque. In fact I interviewed Lew for the Xerox sales job at UNM. He was great fun to be around and a real go-getter. I know he will be missed by all who knew him.

Lew was a member of a team at Xerox that was more of a family. We worked together, had lunch together, and played together. Every Thursday for years we played poker - Lew, me, Q, Gary and a few others who weren't regulars but occasionals. Lew was always upbeat and positive. I remember the last time I saw him he came to my house for a superbowl game - I don't remember which one or the year or who won, only that Lew was there with us. We will miss you, old friend.
