Nicholas Savage, 86; Businessman and Marine Veteran

Nicholas Savage, educated though he may have been in the hallowed halls of Exeter and Harvard, was no sissy of a prep school boy, a death notice placed in the San Francisco Chronicle makes clear. This Minnesota native, who graduated with an SB from Harvard in 1942, fought as a Marine for Guam’s liberation during World War II, joining the national reserve upon his return home. Off the battlefield, Savage spent his 40-year-long career in the world of metals and mining, before retiring from the Fluor Corporation in 1983.

Savage died April 15.
