The angels carried Geoffrey to the open arms of his Heavenly Father and Chief on June 30, 2021. He was the adored son of Carol and the late George Bilger; dearest grandson of Cyril G. and Madelein P. Schelly and the late Marie and Edward Bilger; dear nephew of Dru Schelly of Midland, Texas and the late Mary Caspermeyer. He had many Bilger, Becker and Lake cousins and loved each and every one of them.
Geoffrey knew love, happiness, joy, contentment, pleasure, devotion and affection. He knew delight, fondness, goodness, cheerfulness, hope, friendship, truthfulness and loyalty. He knew pain, sorrow and heartache. He was trusting, incapable of hate, feeling detest, dislike, fear, danger, evil, anxiety or malice. Racism is a word that was not in his vocabulary. He had a passion for living. He often said “I’m happy in my life.” He believed, he had faith. He was a friend to everyone he met. To the world, he was just one person. To two people he was the world. This was Geoffrey.

Carol – We were so saddened to learn of Geoff’s passing. Word is out here at Lafayette, and people are having a hard time believing he’s gone. He really livened up Halloween with his imaginative costumes. He always surprised me because I never knew him. However, most people remember his “Octo Mommy” outfit. It certainly left me at a loss for words that year. Our thoughts are with you during this most difficult of times. We will always remember the special times we had with Geoff. Take care of yourself, and our thoughts are with you. Godspeed, Geoffrey.

Dear Carol and Family,
I couldn’t help but smile whenever I saw Geoff. He was usually wearing one. I am privileged to have known him in our Kirkwood Council and 4th degree Assembly. He was a true Catholic gentleman. We could count on him being at our meetings-and letting us know what he thought! May the Lord bless you and keep you.
