The Senate of the State of Rhode Island has introduced SR 1160, expressing its deep condolences on the passing of Roger A. Savini, a beloved member of the North Smithfield community and husband to Micheline Savini for 51 years. Born in Woonsocket, Roger was a successful entrepreneur known for owning popular local establishments, including Savini's Restaurant and Ciro's Tavern, which were celebrated for their family-friendly atmosphere and quality food. Prior to his restaurant ventures, he had a successful career at General Motors and as a real estate broker, and he also owned several other businesses in the area.

Roger Savini was an active member of his community, frequently seen at local social clubs and enjoying leisure activities such as blackjack and family vacations to Aruba. He is survived by his wife, daughters, grandchildren, and siblings. The resolution concludes with the Senate's directive to transmit a certified copy of the resolution to Mrs. Micheline Savini and her family, honoring Roger's memory and contributions to the community. The resolution was introduced by Senators Murray, Thompson, and Paolino on June 20 and is recommended for immediate consideration.
