Triggs, Geoffrey ‘Geoff’ William
June 18th, 2021
Peacefully at home surrounded by his family, on Friday, June 18, 2021, in his 71st year. Beloved husband of Anne. Loving father of Sallyanne Triggs and Louise Amy Triggs. Much loved grandfather of Sam. Dear brother of Shirley (Paul) Jackson and Wayne (Jayne) Triggs. Deeply missed by his family in England. Predeceased by his parents Amy and William Triggs.
Geoff, his wife, Anne, and children, Sally and Louise, emigrated to Canada from England in 1974. After a short stint working at Ford Talbotville, Geoff started an apprenticeship in sprinklers with Automatic Sprinkler in 1974. Geoff was one of the original co-founders of Forest City Fire Protection in 1985.
Geoff earned the reputation as a caring, loyal, industrious individual who was not afraid to tackle any project or problem. He hit things straight on with passion and vigor but did so in a manner that was thoughtful and considerate of others. It was a privilege to get to know Geoff but it was a blessing and an honour to be considered his friend – and many did.
As passionate as Geoff was about work, his main concern and love was his family. Please remember Anne, Sally and her son Sam, and Louise, as they navigate these difficult days.
