The Senate of the State of Rhode Island has introduced a resolution 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 the son of Arthur William and Jeanne Ledoux Savini. He and his wife were successful entrepreneurs, owning popular local establishments such as Savini's Restaurant and Ciro's Tavern, known for their family-friendly atmosphere and quality food. Prior to his restaurant ventures, Roger had a career at General Motors and as a real estate broker, and he also owned several other businesses in the area.

Roger was an active member of his community, frequently seen at local social clubs and enjoying activities such as blackjack and annual family vacations to Aruba. He is survived by his daughters, Jill Andrea Moylan and Gina Marie Savini Fague, along with his grandchildren and sisters. 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.
