Anyone who knew Geoff knew he was genuinely, just a great human being.
He made so many unforgettable memories and touched many, many lives.
Thank you for always having my back, even against friends and family.
Thank you for all the times we shared.
Thank you for being in my life when you could, friend.
We got to know Geoff for a short time as he was our son’s first roommate in OKC. Geoff was a sweetheart of a guy, and a super talented musician. In his words, he “had Jesus,” so we know we’ll see him again one day and we’re looking forward to seeing him drumming again with all his talent and no problems! Our deepest sympathies to his family as you wait to be reunited with him. God bless you all.
I will never forget the summer I got to spend with Geoff. Running through the backyard with the golf cart and chasing Treasure with it is something I will always cherish. We may have spent a summer and a school year together but those memories will stay with me for the rest of my life. Rest easy up there.
I will never forget all the times with him, all the friends, laughs and smiles when he was there with everyone. All the conversations about his music, how amazing and gifted he was, the resilience he had, and all of the wonderful memories and love he had for anyone and everyone around him. He was one of a kind and personally ill never forget him.
Good man and a lot of good memories working together at Joe Cooper
