Not sure what to say?

I had the privledge of knowing Geoff while he was CEO of TTI and several yearsjatse as he eased into retirement. Never easy to find a financial guy (As many May know he was CFO prior to CEO) who successfully makes the transition to CEO. I have many fond memories of us bantering back and forth about not only tetra and its prospects, but of many life lessons that I apply to this day. He was a very principaled man who truly cared! I have to say I wish I listened and bought a lot more gold as...

Many fond memories from grad school on through high school With Geoff. He was the first boy I danced with in Junior High! Condolences to his family. Joey Heckert Bachtel

To the wonderful memories at Eight Point Lake! Rest in Peace! Dick Jury

As someone who was much junior to Geoff professionally, he was incredibly engaging, helpful and kind and had a wicked sense of humor. So sorry to hear of his passing.

Dear Carol, Jim and I want to express our sympathy. Though we have not seen you in many years we have fond memories of when the Groenink would all get together. Know that you are in our prayers.

I´m so sorry for your loss. I am praying for you all. Please know that your loved one is safe in God´s memory (Proverbs 14:14,15). Just as he brought his son Jesus back to life, he will do the same for your loved one. May God give you comfort and strength to help you cope during this difficult time.

I met Geoff at Rotan Mosle in the late 1970s. He was a highly respected oil and gas stock analyst whose recommendations literally moved markets in those days. He was a consummate professional and a very fine gentleman.

Geoff was a great man, husband and father to Ed and Sam. I will always remember him as Mr. Hertel. Ed and I were always "attempting" to be on our best behavior around Mr. Hertel because we had so much respect for him and never wanted to let him down. You will surely be missed Geoff.

Geoff´s face lit up every time he talked about Carol and his family. He was truly a mensch: a man of principle and honor. And he loved to laugh.
