Geoff had a fulfilling career of over 35 years in management at Reynolds Aluminum in Montreal & Rexdale.
Geoff will always be remembered for his love of the outdoors fostered during his early years at Lac Marois in the Laurentians and then at Walkers Lake outside of Huntsville where he would make annual visits. Geoff always had a positive attitude and no challenge was too great to overcome. Over the past number of years, Geoff faced numerous health issues that he focused on overcoming. The glass was always half full with Geoff.
Geoff will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, whether it was the Tim Hortons group or the many people he would meet in Bronte riding in his wheelchair. Geoff always loved a good party, make a toast to his memory at the appropriate time. The family would like to thank all the nurses, doctors and support staff at OTMH and Amica – Bronte Village who were there for him.
