So sorry for your loss Lauren. Hugs from Canada.
My Dear friend Geoffrey, Thank You for everything that you did for me. I enjoyed our time together at work. R.I.P buddy.
I am very saddened to learn of Geoff’s passing. He was a great coworker, and a positive spirit. The world needs more people like Geoff, and it hurts to know he is gone. Rest easy, friend.
Dear LB and family,
Please accept our heartfelt condolences for the loss of your husband and dad. Sending hugs and peace.
love you sóoo sorry. yes are our special friends for life. need anything don’t hesitate to reach out..
Geoff, you were a great neighbor..I’m truly saddened at your sudden passing..we just had a long chat a few weeks ago while I was painting my back patio.. about our jobs, our pets.. that conversation was not just random, and may it remind me that small moments, small conversations, kind words, are so priceless, and mean everything.
I have known Geoffrey and family for over 25 years and have many memories. Although Geoffrey left us too soon, he will be remembered by me and those who knew him.
I am sure he is in a better place now and may he rest in peace.
I’m truly heartbroken by the loss of Geoffrey. He was more than just a great colleague; he was a genuinely kind and honest person. What stood out most to me was his clarity and sincerity, whether we were in the middle of a BNE emergency exercise or just having a thoughtful conversation. You could always count on Geoff to speak the truth and offer meaningful insight. He often spoke with such pride about his son, and it was clear how much his family meant to him. My deepest condolences to them during this difficult time. He will be deeply missed.
Geoff and I were “coworkers” I use the word loosely because we only saw each other once or twice a year on nuclear response. He made the experience something to look forward to, in my new role the past years I worked with him for the entire 8+ hour day. There were many laughs and good times. Through this we learned we worked together while he was an MST years prior! I will miss you Geoff, drills will never be the same. May you rest in eternal peace my friend.
