Geoffrey H. Shanklin Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on December 12, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Geoffrey H. Shanklin of Melrose, Massachusetts. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Geoffrey H. Shanklin to show support.
As we bid farewell to this cherished soul, solace is taken in the memories held dear — the laughter shared, the wisdom imparted, the moments of quiet reflection in their presence. Though Geoffrey may no longer walk among us, his spirit lives on in the echoes of his kindness, the warmth of his embrace, and the light of his enduring love.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Robert Marion and Jeanne Shanklin (Hall); and his nephew Spenser Robert Selby. He is survived by: his sister Elizabeth W. Shanklin-Selby (Greg) of Frederick, MD.; his nieces, Margaret Jee Whittier Selby of Frederick and Jessica Selby (Tori) of Richmond, VA.; and his pets, Willow and Star. He is also survived by his sister's pet.
Donations may be made in Geoffrey's memory to the Melrose Humane Society, PO BOX 760688, Melrose, MA, 02176 http://www.melrosehumanesociety.org.
