Shocked to learn of Geoff's passing. A long time friend. Will miss his witty character. RIP mate

To Barbara & Doug and the wider family sorry to hear of the passing of Geoff far to young . In the Makuri days as neighbours being younger than us not sure if he helped dam up the waterfall or came eeling on the little island at the bottom or did all the other fun things we did as Makuri kids . Love to you all .

So sorry to hear this sad news. We certainly had lots of laughs with you Geoff way back in the day. Lots of fun and fond memories of Makuri farm too.

Geoff
My dearest Geoff - I have been blessed with your presence in my life.

I miss you in everything, our first early morning coffee, our last `good night honey´ in the evenings.
Our extended conversations while you were driving to and from work....
A quiet hour at sunset...

We loved the same food, the same movies and very often said the same thing at exactly the same time and then laughed at ourselves.

If I could show you to the world through my eyes I can only say that your sincerity and kindness had no end and your integrity was impeccable. You put other´s interests above your own and many a time made sacrifices to help and support others and just be there for them. You never expected anything in return.

You accepted each and everyone that crossed your path without judgement just the way they were and made them feel welcome and at home.

You had endless stories to tell and won the hearts of everyone we spent time with.
With your unique sense of humour you made life interesting - truly never a dull moment.

You touched and enriched people´s lives with your perseverance and positivity and genuine kindness - even through your own darkest days.

You were a true gentleman ..... You did not only make me feel loved, you made me feel valued, respected, prioritised, heard , understood and supported.

There is now a huge empty hole in my life.

I´ll miss you every day, everywhere, in everything...
Love you endlessly....

Till we meet again.......

Our deepest sympathies to Sue, Rachel, Buddy and family from the Shearmans.
I met Geoff 30+ years ago having drinks of course, he was always the life of the party, you´ll be sadly missed
Rest in peace mate

Fly safely old friend!!

Rachel - Your Rhythmic Gym days friends are very sad indeed to see that you have had to farewell your special Dad so suddenly. We send our condolences, especially to you and your family, with big hugs and lots of love and happy memories.

A work colleague from way back. A Comedian, Larrikin and whatever else. Always had a Smile and ready with a "Wise crack". Helped to pass the Night Shifts etc. away. RIP Geoff.

Very sorry to learn of Geoff's passing. Darts at Stewart's with DC and the gang after work on a Wednesday afternoon was always colorful with Geoff. He was well liked and respected. He supported my business with his knowledge in security for which I'm always grateful. You left too soon Geoff, set em up and get them in on the other side mate.

I was shocked and deeply saddened by the news of Geoff's passing. We had been good friends for well over 40 years since meeting as work colleagues. We had been in regular, almost daily contact in recent months. I know Geoff was greatly looking forward to some new chapters in his life starting this year. I also know of the love he had for all his family and special friends. The fishing adventures, dart tournaments, and constant fun and laughter that always went with Geoff will live on in my memory. Gone but never forgotten. RIP Meurky.

We were very saddened to hear of Geoff's untimely death. We met Geoff through our cousin, Karen. We liked him very much and know how much he loved and was loved by Karen. Rest easy now, Geoff xx

Geoff. What can I say,class clown,,we called him rust never sleeps, pretty sad day. RIP. Old m8

Condolences to all of Geoff's family. I am saddened to learn of his passing. Reflecting back to the days of Selwyn Ford, Avis, NZ police, Commercial Travellers Club and fishing excursions to Kuratau, Lake Taupo. Always had a joke to share.! " TO WEEP IS TO MAKE LESS THE DEPTH OF GRIEF" Rest easy Geoff.

Sympathies to the Meurk family at this time with the loss of Geoff

I am very sorry to hear of Geoff's passing. Thoughts are with his family

A Comedian has passed but never forgotten RIP, GM WHO threw that E F N Dart was one of GEOFF"s most memorable sayings that i recall , he walked in with a dart sticking out of one ear and the plastic flight in the other, sending a huge uproar

Condolences to the Meurk & extended families. From Bev Jaques (nee Berry) and family
