Allan Savage was a member of the CJA off and on for about 40 years. Though I did not have the pleasure to work with him as a judge, I did have the pleasure of corresponding with him about the Byrne book.

Recently, I reached out to him only to find out that he had passed away in May of 2022. I wanted to share this sad news with everyone.

Jon Edwards is currently working with Allan’s chess materials and has written the following in Chessstamp Review #186 that others, particularly those interested in postal chess, might want to read: See the article here.

Jon also created the following article detailing Allan’s correspondence chess career.
