Geoffrey, I have only known you for a relatively short time compared to many of your friends but in that time I have known the grief of loosing my own father. During this time you have you have been like a second father to me and I consider it a privilege and a pleasure to have known you and to have been a small part of your life.
Geoffrey may you rest in peace safe in the knowledge that those of us who follow will always strive to live our lives by the example set by you. May you also be safe in the knowledge that by that example we will love, support and care for your dear wife and family in your absence.
