Not sure what to say?

I am sorry to learn of Pastor Geib's passing. I was his first intern at St. Peter's, Lancaster, and I could not have asked for a better supervisor.

A GREAT MAN, AN INSPIRATIONAL LEADER. A FRIEND OF MINE AND MY FAMILY FOR OVER 60 YEARS. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER.

He was a wise mentor, a beloved colleague, a clever leader, and loving pilgrim of the Christian faith: a giant among humanity. He inspired people to be better than we thought we could be. I will miss him. He left a legacy of great leaders, and a loving family: may your mourning be turned to dancing. Rest eternal, grant him, O Lord, and let light perpetual shine upon him.

PG will always be remembered as a big part of our family. Both my boys attended church with us for many years. They were confirmed by PG and attended all the camps and teen events. We will always have a special place in our hearts for pastor Geib. RIP . Love you.

I remember Pastor Geib from St Peter´s Middletown in the 60´s. He taught my confirmation class and led some spirited discussions. I admired his practicality, can do attitude, and undying faith. He was an inspiration and wonderful role model.

My memory is living in Middletown and going to church as a young child,I went to school with his son Richard. Pastor Geib and his wife was always there to help those in need .
