Default On behalf of ....

....all members of the Ontario Military Vehicle Association my sincere
condolences to the family and close friends. When I first read this I was in shock for a minute and then reread the details and was surprised, as I know all of us were, that after the previous post he had passed so quickly.
I was advised the same day my best friend has cancer so it was an eye opener on the shortness of life.
I will advise the Regiment of his demise. I regret not knowing him better.
Rest in peace Geoff.

Peter Simundson

Deepest sympathy, and condolences to the family. A privilege to have met Geoff, and enormously impressed by what he achieved in the field of MV preservation, and in particular the MLU website. He brought like minded people together all of whom are the better for it. A very sad loss.

Default Sorry

I met Geoff at Corowa .. was most impressed he put up with the long flight and came all the way from Canada to visit us .. I believe he wasn't in the best of health at the time. Despite his health situation, he made the effort and I think he really had a great time .

We will meet again in CMP land

Mike
