Geo was a longtime family friend having grown up in Plattin, MO. He was always willing to lend a hand to those in need. I remember well his wit and homespun humor.

Geo was such a wonderful neighbor. He was funny, always quick with a funny quip. We will miss him, the building seems a little empty without him being here.
Bonnie,
Our prayers are with both of you . May you take comfort in the wonderful memories the two of you shared.
