Dwayne Geidel Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Wake Memorial Park Cemetery from Oct. 31 to Nov. 1, 2024.
Dwayne Mussler Geidel, 57, of Cary, North Carolina, passed away on October 27, 2024. Born on September 18, 1967, in St. Louis, Missouri, he was the beloved son of Harold and Joan Geidel, who preceded him in death. Dwayne is survived by his devoted wife of 25 years, Cheryl; his cherished children, Erik and Allison; his sister Kristi and brother-in-law Brian Abney; his sister-in-law Jennifer House; and his dear nieces, Jillian Abney, Kaila Curry, and Hailey Griffen.
A graduate of the University of Missouri with a degree in Fine Arts, Dwayne dedicated 18 years to his career at Doe & Ingalls (later Thermo Fisher). Beyond his profession, he was deeply involved in scouting for over 30 years, sharing his love for the outdoors, history, and art. Dwayne had a remarkable ability to elevate conversations with his deep knowledge of art history, U.S. history, music, literature, and film, enriching the lives of everyone around him with his insights and passion. His life was a testament to his love for family, his creative spirit, and his enduring appreciation for nature and culture. Dwayne will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Dwayne was one of the best people I've ever met. For a decade, since the time he hired me to the time we were no longer coworkers but just friends, he always had a great perspective on life and an interesting conversation to share. He was the kind of guy who bought tons and tons of Girl Scout cookies for the office just to show support and give us a treat even though he didn't like sweets himself. He had a wicked sense of humor, was fantastic at art, and knew a little bit about every topic. But above all, Dwayne was kind, trustworthy, and made everyone feel comfortable just being themselves. He will be remembered forever and his family is in our thoughts and hearts as well! -Allie Coker

My name is Oscar Arellano and I first met Dwayne in September of 2008. I had been hired by Doe & Ingalls of Ca as their Site Manager. I recall Dwayne just making me feel comfortable by talking about his family most of all his kids as I was about to have my first in December of 2008. We talked about the Raiders as I was a fan and he told me about living in San Francisco. He was just a genuinely good person.

My condolences goes out to your family in this time of sadness.
