Clyde Arthur Geiger (1956–2025)
An extraordinary man with an incredible story Clyde made an impact not only on the lives of his family but everyone that encountered him. A man that always put others needs before his own, Clyde would have given anyone the shirt off his back. Clyde's mellow personality, kindness and hard work ethic were undeniable and an inspiration not only to his family that he loved so deeply but also to the many friends, colleagues and clients that he met over the years. Clyde was never motivated by money but motivated by doing what was right and helping people was a passion. He could literally fix anything and if he didn't know how he would research it, learn, and figure out a way to get it done.
Clyde passed away unexpectedly yet peacefully surrounded by his family holding on to him in his final moments, knowing the amount of love he was receiving was a result of the huge impact he made on each one of our lives. He battled a cancer diagnosis courageously that was considered aggressive but curable and passed away from an infection during his extended hospital stay. Clyde was a fighter and fought very hard for as long as he could, but his body became tired and simply could not take anymore.
A father to Kimberly, Jason and Gary, proud grandfather to Austin, Peyton, Isabella, Brooklyn, Cadence, Joseph, Madelyn and Jacob, brother to Caesar, Alex (Roberta) and Virginia, father-in-law but truly a dad to Nicole Marie Geiger and Nicole Lynn Geiger, survived by his mother Laverne who never wanted to outlive her son and his fiancé Patricia.
Everyone says they want to have a celebration of their life when they pass but Clyde truly meant it! Although a man of faith he was not a fan of Church or funeral homes. He believed a person could practice their faith and speak to God anywhere.
A celebration of life will be held for Clyde on Friday April 11th, 2025, at Bass Bay Brewhouse located at S79 W15851 Aud Mar Drive in Muskego from 2PM to 6PM. We ask that you join us to honor Clyde's wishes and truly celebrate his life the way he wanted.
Life is Joyful. Death is Peaceful. It is the transition that is troublesome and weighs ever so heavy on the hearts of those who have had the joyful experiences of life with our loved ones we have lost.
