Dear Family, I have long held a great love and respect for my wonderful coach. Memories of playing for such a fine, gentle man have been with me since my days as a basketball player at good old Weber High in '60 and '61. He treated each of us with kindness and respect and got the best out of us as young men and as players. I said many times to my dear wife, Marcia: " I want to go see Coach Salvo." I put it off too long. The last time I saw him though was a joy when I spoke briefly with him and Betty at our 50 year reunion. Reading his obituary was the first time I knew about his life before coaching us. He was always interested in us and never spoke about himself at all. What an extraordinary American he was. Dutch told me a few years ago that Coach Salvo helped him a lot with our baseball team - always behind the scenes. He wasn't even in our team picture,yet he was our coach too. I was very fortunate to have had him as a my coach and as my friend and send my deepest condolences to all of you. With love and kindest regards, Dennis Anderson.

I was sorry to hear of Paul's passing. Please accept my sympathies and condolences. I haven't seen him for a number of years but my recollections are of a very special man. My father coached with Paul and knew him well and always spoke of him as a close friend and a man of great integrity. He was a great example and always willing to help anyone in need. He will be greatly missed.

We would like to express our condolences to all the Salvo family. I know that Mr. Salvo was a fine gentleman because everyone he raised turned out the very same with his character. He not only instilled this character to family but all whom had the honor to learn basketball and just being a friend. Best Wishes!!

Dear Salvo Family, we have grown up with Paul and first got to know him when we all started out on Rancho Blvd. Paul is one of mine and Gregory's earliest memories and we deveIoped such great memories of him. Greg and Chris became friends with Pat and Bruce, while I became fast friends with John, Frank and Lisa. These are memories we have cherished throughout our lives even though contact faded through the years, we will always remember him. Please accept our heartfelt condolences.
Paul was a great presence in my personal life, teaching me how to drive and providing so much encouragement throughout the journey. He played a significant role in my life, and I can't begin to tell you how I appreated his kindness. He is certainly one of the most amazing people I've ever met and all our lives are so much better for having known him. He will be truly missed by the Nelson family. He was one of the best! And we are so very sorry for your loss. Warm and loving thoughts are in our prayers for your family.
Lori, Kathryn and Gregory Nelson
