Mr. Salvail touched the lives of everyone around him and always made known his love for them. He was a special presence in the lives of hundreds of family members, friends, neighbors, and coworkers.

He played baseball growing up and was a member of the student council and yearbook club at Jesuit. He was passionately involved in the many organizations he was associated with throughout his life. None was more important to him than his spiritual home of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church, in which he was a founding member. In his 24 years of attendance there, he took on countless duties. He was a Grand Knight of the Knights of Columbus and honored as a Knight of the Order of St. Gregory. He was a member of the pastoral council, a mentor for the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults, and involved in marriage preparation for young couples. He was a coordinator for ushers, a lector, and a Eucharistic Minister. He also participated in the choir, in which his love of music and his rich faith could be seen by all. Mr. Salvail was preceded in death by his father, Ferdinand Pershing Salvail and his mother, Ruby Woodward Salvail; and his brothers Ferdinand P. Salvail Jr. and Michael Curtis Salvail. Mr. Salvail is survived by his wife Deborah whom he married in January of 1982 at St. Mary of the Pines Catholic Church; his two sons Nathaniel Paul and Scott Edmund Salvail; his sisters, Donna Lynn Gayer, Deborah Anne Cummings, and Mary Loretta Salvail; and his brother Andre Woodward Salvail. Additionally, he is survived by aunts and uncles, numerous nieces and nephews, countless cousins, friends and parishioners of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton. Visitation will be from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 3, with a vigil service following at 6:30 p.m. A funeral mass will be celebrated Wednesday, June 4, at 10:30 a.m. Both visitation and funeral mass will be celebrated at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church.

The family would like to express their deep gratitude to Dr. Robert Nickelson, Dr. Sanford Katz, Dr. Germain Cassiere, Dr. Anil Nanda, and the staff of Willis Knighton Cancer Treatment Center. They would also like to give a special thanks to the staff and nurses of Christus Schumpert Grace Home for their loving care of Mr. Salvail and his family.
