SAVAGE,
Roy
John
Born London, England February 2, 1939, died September 26, 2003
in Toronto after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Roy
is survived by his wife
Lesley
KIRK, daughter Katherine (and
her mother Annette,) sister Patricia
KAELBLE and nephew David
PATEL (and Lara,) and stepdaughters Amanda
CLYNE and Sarah
CLYNE-
SANCHEZ
(and Jose Luis
SANCHEZ,) and granddaughter Avila.
Roy spent his entire career in the telecommunication industry,
first in England and then in Canada with C.N. Telecommunications
and its successor companies, retiring from A.T.&T. Canada in
December 1999. Roy will be remembered as a strong leader, a complex
problem-solver and a generous friend and mentor.
Throughout his life, Roy applied his signature zeal in taking
on new challenges. He was a life-long learner who proved he could
excel at anything he put his mind to: from flying planes, playing
drums or target shooting to fly fishing, rebuilding car engines
or computer programming. His humour and energetic spirit will
be greatly missed.
The family would like to give special thanks to the staff of
the Palliative Care Ward at Toronto Grace Hospital for their
professionalism, their compassion and their support for both
Roy and the family during Roy's last weeks. Friends wishing to
honor Roy's memory are asked to make a donation to the Palliative
Care Ward of the Toronto Grace Hospital (416-925-2251).
