Salute, Geoffrey
Dear Editor,
Geoffrey was more than a friend, he was a brother in sport whose commitment was as enduring as his love for the human experience and culture of football.
He inspired his charges at Wolmer’s Boys’ School and Excelsior and Hydel high schools to be gentlemen at play while aspiring to be skilled in the art and forensic in the science of the sport. His stature clothed many a Premier League outfit and characterised their accomplishments on the field; national teams were also beneficiaries of the talents that were gifted to him.
In life and death some are celebrated, but seldom saluted. Geoffrey, we salute you.
