Read More	Tyler Sibley Savage was born at Spencer, Massachusetts, December 17, 1832. October the eighth, 1855, he was married to Miss Adeline Marsh in Worcester, Massachusetts. Shortly after their marriage, they came west to Illinois, locating at Winnebago, in Winnebago county. Their next move was to Rockford, Illinois, from which place, after a number of years residence, they came to Fairmont, Nebraska, where they have made their home ever since, having lived here for twenty-five years. To Mr. and Mrs. Savage were born two daughters, Minnie May, departing this life about thirteen years ago, and Mrs. Bertie All of this city, the only surviving member of the family. The wife and mother were laid to rest about ten years ago. Mr. Savage experienced a peaceful death Thursday morning at his home in Fairmont, at 8:45, when his spirit took its flight to that "Bourn from whence no traveler has returned." He was eighty-two years, two months and twenty-four days old at the time of his death. The funeral service was held from the home Saturday afternoon at two o'clock, Rev. A.T. Evans of the Fairmont Congregational church officiating. Interment was made in the family plot in the Fairmont cemetery. Mr. Savage was what we might call a home-lover. Home was the loved spot that brought comfort, rest and refreshment to his life in the days of trial and struggle, no less than in the more calm and quiet days. It was from this home that he buried his daughter and beloved wife. Such a place could but impress him with the thought that it was sacred ground. He was of a kindly disposition and had a pleasing personality. The affliction of not being able to hear well made him somewhat retiring in disposition. Perhaps we might say that his social life was more circumscribed on that account. Those who knew him intimately testify to his unselfishness and regarded him as a man of fine principles. He was quiet, gentle and thoughtful in behalf of others, and in his home it is said that this was carried to the point of self-sacrifice. Anything that he could do to make home life all that it should be was not too burdensome or exacting for him. He said very little, went very little, so that his life is known very largely in relation to his home. Not anything that I might say could add to or detract from all that he did and was. Of twenty-five years of his life, many of you have knowledge. You have known him during all these years as an honorable, upright citizen who had won your respect and admiration. Today you gather around his bier to take a last look and bid farewell to his earthly form; to pay respect to his memory and sympathize with those who mourn his departure. The sweet influences of his life to those who knew him best will remain as the fragrance of a never fading flower. No more will you see him in the flesh, yet you will feel his presence, which will confirm your faith in an invisible world and teach you again the lesson that the senses are not necessary to communion and fellowship. If he had faults and defects of character, your love will throw the mantle of charity over them now and your communion and fellowship will be with those things that made him true and noble in your sight, so that, his passing after all, may be a blessing, a refreshing of your souls. To dwell in thought upon the virtues of any life is to enrich the character of the soul. The great apostle Paul understood this when he wrote to the Philippians these familiar words: "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." Rev. A.T. Evans Fillmore Weekly Chronicle (Fairmont) March 19, 1915 page 1. --------------------- Son of Lawson and Fanny (Marsh) Savage. (no information on parents) Came to Fairmont, Nebraska in 1890. Lot owner: Tyler S. Savage.
