Jeffrey Geesaman Obituary
LIMA -- Jeffrey R. Geesaman, 68, of Lima, passed away at 8:37 PM on Thursday, August 15, 2024 at Lima Convalescent Home.

Jeffrey proudly served his country as a member of the US Army. He retired as a Supervisor at Nickles Bakery, having worked there for over 35 years.

He loved attending car shows and collected model muscle cars, having more than 100 in his collection. He was an avid fan of The Ohio State Buckeyes and the Cleveland Browns. He will be sadly missed by his dog Jesse.

Also surviving are numerous nieces and nephews and many, many friends.
He was preceded in death by his brother Larry Geesaman.
