GEOFFREY
J CUNNINGHAM January 9, 1970 - October 15, 2005 Below are some of the wonderful condolence messages received in the days after Geff's passing. Thank you to everyone for your kindness and support for helping us through trying circumstances. Geff is constantly in our hearts and is sorely missed. |

Hi Guys, family, everyone, Excuse my lack of formal contact, but I’ve been selfishly busy in making the most of what time that I have been blessed with and given by my parents on this incredible planet of ours. I’m sure everyone is feeling emotionally drained from the events of the last 7 years and especially the last few weeks. Geff’s life was short in comparison to those that we all wish to have our selves, but I’m sure that he enjoyed the moments that he could and showed strength in the moments that counted, especially these last few days. May Geff now rest for ever in peace with the love of his family and friends nestled firmly in his heart |

Sara, I am so sorry to hear of the tragic loss of your
brother. To also hear it is from a brain tumor makes me so sad. I'm not sure if
you knew but that is why John's face is paralyzed on the right side. He had a
massive (lemon sized) brain tumor removed 2-1/2 years ago. We are blessed that
it was not malignant. I have some idea of your brothers bravery. I wish there
was something I could do or say to lessen your loss. Please know that John and I are here. If you need anything done about the new house, please call and let us know or email. We are here for you and Ian. We do care. Please tell your family that we praying for all of you. That your family may find comfort in each other and in memories you have of your brother. He was so young to leave you so soon. He is in God's hands now and not feeling anything but love. Please know you and your family are in our thoughts. Many hugs. |

Dear Sara, There are of course no words that can really help you with your loss and all I can do is give you my sincere condolences. I never met Geff but in my conversations with Ian (usually on the golf course!) my overwhelming impression of Geff was a man with huge courage who faced his illness with immense dignity and strength of spirit. I would have been proud to have him for a brother. I am so glad that Ian was able to make it back to be with you to help you and support you at this time. Please be assured that both Jane’s and my thoughts are with you both at this time. Take care and love to you both. |

Sara, I am so sorry to hear that Geff passed away. I am sure that you and your family are devastated. I really liked your brother... I remember meeting him for the first time when he worked at Dominick's. He was always very kind and very nice to me. Please pass on my condolences to your parents. It is terrible to outlive your child. If there is anything that I can do, please let me know. My thoughts and prayers are with you. |

Hello Sara, I still remember you. I'm saddened by the news. Geff & I were even communicating with each other last April or May because I informed him that I'll be coming to the US this year to study and even told him that should I find the time I'll meet him again in Chicago . I'm actually here in Washington , dc. Feel free to call me if you have time, 202-8423230. So sorry for your loss. Geff is certainly one of the kindest persons I've ever met and in fact, we have nice pictures during our Scotland tour... My prayers are sincerely offered to his soul and to his loved ones. |

This is going to be a hard time for the family but I’m sure you’ll all pull through it. Good that you are there now to support her. Hope all goes well at the funeral and keep in touch with all that is going on. |

Jen and I were so
sorry to hear of Geff's passing. We feel privileged to have met him and
experience just a small bit of who he was. Having recently lost Jen's Dad we do
not envy the time ahead but with the love of family and friends life will go on
and Geff's life can be celebrated and remembered fondly. |

| Hi Ian, Sara I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I am so glad that you have both been able to be there with your family in such a difficult time. My thoughts are with you both and your family. |
| With love Annette (Friend from London) |
| Ian I’ve just dialed in to check emails and have picked up this one. I’m so sorry to hear about Sara’s brother – please pass on my deepest sympathies. Wishing you both all the very best, please tell Sara she is in my thoughts and prayers. |
| Veronica x (Friend from London ) |
| Hi Sara. Been a little unsure what to say except how truly sorry I am for you and your Mum and Dad. I would say if you need anything just ask but the 4000 miles between us kind of knocks that idea on the head. All I can say is I'm always a friend, still miss you and if your ever back over here and need someone call me. You look after yourself and say hello to Ian for me. |
| Neil Ripley (Sara’s former work colleague in London) |
| Dear Sara and Ian I am very sorry to hear about Geoff's death. Please accept my sincere condolences at this sad time. |

Thank you to everyone for your comforting words. It was wonderful to receive
your wishes and it helped to keep us strong.
