Passing of friends |
It is with deep sadness that we are informing the OD Community of the passing of Geoffrey Brooke. Geoffrey matriculated from Gray House in 1994.
Geoffrey passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by his loving family, after a short illness.
A service was held at the All Saints Chapel, in Purewa on Saturday 24 May.
Geoffrey was the Principal Economist for the New Zealand Commerce Commission. He had a PhD in Economics from the University of Auckland. Prior to joining the NZCC he taught at Auckland University of Technology.
We remember Geoffrey at school as a very respectful student, quiet in his demeanour, and as a keen swordsmen who earned his Full Colours for Fencing, amongst others.
Geoffrey passed his Matric with distictinctions in English and Geography.
Our condolences go to his wife Luca, parents David and Lesley Brooke, and to his family.
Requiescat in Pace.
