He served his country with pride by enlisting in the United States Navy. Carl Savoca was loved by all who had the honor of knowing him. Spending time at the lake fishing was his favorite pastime. Most often you would find the sounds of Louie Prima or Frank Sinatra filling the air when you came for a visit. He had worked as an industrial Metal Plater. Carl had an upbeat personality, and loved to joke and tell stories. He will always be remembered as a man who loved with his whole heart, and loved nothing more than to spend time with family. Carl was a proud father of five daughter, Sharon Matthews, Carla Marr, Marianna Palmisano, Linda Savoca, and Leslie Ober. He was the loving grandfather of eight grandchildren and thirteen great-grandchildren. Carl is also survived by extended family and many friends.
