Dr. Saye was born on June 19, 1939, in Madison, Georgia to William Bryant Saye and Louise Booth.

After leaving his practice, Dr. Saye transitioned to Laparoscopic Surgery and performed the first Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy. He was the founder of the Advanced Laparoscopy Training Center in Marietta, Georgia. Dr. Saye retired to Fernandina Beach, Florida in 2000. Although his career was in the medical field, Dr. Saye had a profound love for his family, the outdoors and enjoyed hunting, fishing and golfing as well as caring for his quarter horses and paint horses.
