NARFE plans memorial service for Don Savage

The New Albany chapter of National Active and Retired Federal Employees will meet Wednesday, Jan. 25, at Tucker’s American Favorites restaurant in New Albany. Chapter members are planning a memorial service for former state president Don Savage, who died Oct. 12, 2022. Savage was a strong advocate for the NARFE agenda for many years, according to NARFE members. He served as chapter president and Indiana state federation president for four years.

Chapter Alzheimer’s chairman Ann Simpson will collect funds for NARFE Alzheimer’s research to be given in memory of Savage. This is the only national charity supported by NARFE members who have given more than $15 million in support of Alzheimer’s research in the past.

Members will also be updated about the status of the state initiative to increase the current CSRS retirement state income tax deduction due to inflation.

All friends of Savage are encouraged to attend.

For details, call Vickie Fessel, NARFE chapter president, at 812-364-6950.
