My prayers go out to you all. I was lucky enough to be his roommate in college. Always a joy to be around.
Geoff played for me at Illinois Valley Community College. He was blessed with great ability as an athlete, and was loved dearly by all of his coaches and fellow players. None of us will ever forget Geoff…, not even after the last stars flicker and go dark.
Say hello to my Grandmother in Heaven, and keep that arm in shape… God willing over time, one by one, we will all be joining you, and I look forward to seeing you in the mound again.

My prayers go out to the Mann family…..i knew Geoff all the way through elementary school and he was a great guy…..taken far too early.
I am deeply sorry to hear of the passing of Geoff. I worked with him briefly. He was a wonderful person and he will be missed. My condolences to the family at this time.
We are all so sorry to hear of Geoff’s passing. Andrew and Carol , we all share lots of great baseball memories.
Hope that the great memories get you through this difficult time.

Though our work relationship was short, our friendship lasted. Geoff was a great guy and I am so lucky to have called him my friend. My heart goes out to his family. He will be oh so missed. ?
I am so saddened to hear of Geoff’s passing. I had worked for a few years in high school at Loblaws with Geoff and had been friends with some of his friends in the past. He was a very kind soul and one of the friendliest people I have ever met. I will never forget his personality and charm. I ran into him recently so it’s very hard to imagine this could happen to him so young. My deepest sympathies and condolences to his family and friends.
Geoff will always be remembered by me and our family. He spent many hours at my home over the years as a child, playing with my sons. Grew up to be a kind hearted and special guy. From that little boy to being over 6ft tall ….He loved and achieved so much in baseball…. he will be missed and remembered always. Sleep peacefully Geoff….. Special love and thoughts to Carol, Andrew, Natalie and Kasia… – Carrie Rogers
Geoff was a great teammate and a awesome person to be around. RIP Geoff “the terrodactyl” Mann!
Knowing Jeff from work, I always knew he was a kind-hearted individual. Even after he moved onto future jobs, he continued his positive, humorous and kind conversations. It is hard to believe I won’t see you in the store anymore. Thinking off the Mann family at this time.
I had the pleasure of knowing Geoff for 6 months when he was in Adelaide, Australia playing baseball for SDBC. He was a welcomed figure in our house, often visiting & staying with us for a short time.
We had the pleasure of taking him on his first encounter with koala’s & kangaroos and also his first cricket game. I will never forget his excitement those times along with his enthusiasm for everyday.
I will always remember our chats fondly, he always had a story to tell. Whether it was something knowledgeable I learnt from or something I just got a laugh out of.
He made a memorable impact on us for the short time that we knew him but they will always be cherished.
Rest in Peace darling boy.
Love always Bec & Josh xxxx
