Wonderful memories of Geoffrey here in Eygalieres. Side-splitting laughter, computer problems, and a lovely friendship. Cannot believe it has been so long.

...open by luck today - June 11 2018 - this website; of course, best memories was flying by while Geoff and Jane together with us was on world-trips over the years to Nepal-Thailand / Kenya / Botswana-Namibia / flying with floatplane from Whitehorse up to the Brooks-Range in Alaska / rounding Korsika-Island - having good times in US / France and Germany as well.

Geoffrey A. Macdonald is my father. I am sad to think and or have knowledge of his passing. I will forever love him, not only for loving and caring about my family and I, but for being a great father.

Even though I did not know Geoffrey for a long time I have heard about all the great things he did, and how many people he influenced. His son is my best friend and he talks about him so much that it just saddens my heart of his passing. He had so many interesting things to tell when I had dinner with them, that I enjoyed listening and talking about. He was an inspiring person and I wish I could have known him more.

Dear Jane and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Geoffrey. He was always full of life, energy and enthusiasm. I remember still the day I interviewed with him at AFG. It was a pleasure to work there and be motivated by him. He made a difference in my life for sure. Thank you Geoffrey!

At first, he seemed intimidating and then he was out having a beer with the group and proved to be approachable.
My time at AFG was a time I have not forgotten. I did not love the job so much as I loved the ' AFG people'. I met some of my most wonderful friends at AFG.
Thinking back...

Dear Jane and the entire MacDonald Family,
There are no words to express the influence that Geoff has had on my life, and, I am sure, of countless others whose lives he touched. As anyone who has ever met Geoff will attest, he had many strong opinions and a wealth of knowledge that he was only too willing to share with all who would listen.
I met Geoff in 1978 when I was still a college student interning at Chancellor Corporation in Boston where Geoff was a salesman. He quickly took me...
