Died 1 September 2026Posted 6 September 2026

Passed away peacefully at Lady Wigram Retirement Village, on Tuesday, September 1, 2026, aged 84. A sailor at heart, Geoffrey loved the sea, the wind and the freedom of the open water, but his greatest love was Judy. He missed her greatly in the years since she sailed on ahead. Now they will be reunited, scattered together beneath the starry skies of the McKenzie Country.

Fair winds, Geoffrey.
