Geoff used to visit me at least once a year, up here near Georgian Bay area; he would bring me a Canadian Red Ensign,(with the proper coloured leaves); I kept an old military engraved ash tray for him to stub out his butts; we fed him good ol' meat an' taters for which he thanket us.

But there was a troubling side of him that led to his downfall. I need not expound on that, but for that he would still been around.

I miss him terribly, we had awesome discussions, arguments (in the purest sense of the word) about worldly events. I gave him merry hell for what happened with him in Australia as I was speaking with Max Hedges. Sorry, guys, I tend to ramble about the great times I had with"Jif".

I knew Jif since we were pups. Good times were had by all. Well, except for that one time his wife caught us feeding his toddler son juice from a beer bottle....at which point said toddler looked at mom, grinned, wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and declared "I druk!!"
