I am sad to miss the funeral and have fond memories of Geoff. He was always so knowledgeable and helped me out with information on many occasion whilst I was his line manager. We chatted from time to time after I moved up North and I valued his opinion highly. He was always polite but to the point which was needed in his role. I will miss our little chats dearly.

I offer my heartfelt deepest sympathy to all the family. Geoff was so special, his friendship made our working days shine, and it was an absolute honour to know him. May you find peace and love surround you at this difficult time and may you find comfort from your shared memories. One of mine will always be how proud he was of his family and how much he loved his family. His eyes sparkled merely thinking of Abbie and Annemarie. He supported his family, every day, in every way, and I know that these memories will continue to support, given time. I remember too how contagious his smile always was. I silently muse, in quiet prayer, for Geoff is now in God's care, trying out his wings with earnest joy in the best seat in Heaven. My love to you all. Linda x

Every time we think of Geoff we will be smiling just as he did when he entered a room.
