I enjoyed working with Geoff at Noosa. Loved his dry humour and love of life and long bike rides. Was in Emerald and Bowen a few weeks ago and thought of him. Devastating. Thinking of his family now.

I was privileged enough to be working under Geoff at Whitsunday Regional Council as an EHO at the time of his untimely passing. Words cannot express the devastation felt not only by myself, but to everyone at Council who was lucky enough to work alongside Geoff. As a team of only 3 EHOs, Geoff, myself and Danni became not only close work colleagues, but close friends as well. Geoff was a work father to both myself and Danni. Words simply cannot do justice to the man Geoff was.

He was a true gentleman in every sense of the word with a wicked sense of humour. I will miss him deeply and extend my sympathies to Kim, Rosie, his Mum Hettie and his brothers and their families. I am a better person for having known Geoff.

To the Atherfold Family-this is a shock and my thoughts are with you all.We had lost touch with Geoff since he had moved to Australia so so sad to read this today.
We did catch up a few years ago and with our USA friend Graeme Yorke at our home in Hamilton.
69 and still riding a bike, must have been going ok.
RIP Geoff.

Kim, we're thinking of you at this most difficult time.
Geoff will always be a cherished member of our memories.
Our sincerest condolences to you and Rosie.
Janet and Michael

Geoff's passing is just heartbreaking and I'm so sorry for Hettie, Kim, Rosie and Geoff's family. Truly, this is such sad news. I liked Geoff very much and I know how much he loved his family. All best wishes, Kim Ellis
