I am so sorry for everyone that knew Geoff

Unfortunately I never met Geoff but my family holidays in Florida and our trip planned for California this year have/will all be better for his advice.

His passion, knowledge and ability to share information in a succinct and informative way made him an absolute star.

I will miss him.

RIP

So sad to hear.

Condolences to all family and friends.

Thanks for all the great advice and also for helping us with our special trip a number of years back when organising our fab stay at AKL.

Such sad news - I always admired Geoff’s helpful nature and enjoyed seeing his Lego builds and decorating at Halloween and Christmas.
Sending condolences to Darrin , hope wee Blair is doing okay. Thinking of all Geoff’s loved ones including his nephews who he was so proud of.
RIP Geoffa

This news has sent me reeling. We briefly met Geoff and Darrin on the monorail and I went into 'fan' mode and made a right fool of myself. We met for lunch once back in the UK and spent a few hours putting the world to rights. Lovely, funny, interesting man who knew so much, lived life fully and was also a fellow Westie lover.

I can just see him now having a wonderful conversation with Walt and a large glass of something delicious.

Thoughts to Darrin, Blair and family and friends.

Lovely words.

(One small correction: it was never just one glass )

I was so so sad to hear this over the weekend. A real loss to the Dibb family & humankind in general. Great wit & humour - I am sure he would be touched to know his Dibb family cared so much.
I like to think he'll be partying with Walt

Thoughts with his partner & family xx

Was totally shocked to read this today. I never knew of his sudden illness, so very sad, and condolences to Geoff's family and friends. I had communicated a few times with Geoff on here, very nice and extremely helpful guy.
From what I saw on here Geoff lived life to the full and had a good life, albeit too short.
