Brother-in-law Geof I will always remember our first meeting, you turned to brother Ken and said “well she talks with a Plum in her mouth” and me being born and bred in Lincolnshire didn’t know whether to be offended or not. Rest In Piece my lovely brother-in-law . Hugs from Margaret xx

First came into my life in 1975 was welcoming smiling and full of great advice, never changed a bit every time I met Geoff he was the same, he gave me his friendship in so many ways, sadly I will not meet him again but would like to think he’s will always be with me in some way thanks to his influence and friendship RIP Geoff.

Geoff looked after me when I first arrived on green watch York. An honest straight talker who you trusted . My condolences to his family. Sorry I will not be able to attend in person, but I will always remember Geoff and his laugh.

Hard to believe that many of those young Firemen I served with are coming to the end of life’s shift. They served their public unselfishly and I am proud to say that Geoff was always there when the public needed him. I can imagine him, even now, getting ready for the next shout. Returned to Station, job done.

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Geof. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
