A Proud Welshman: Legacy in Athletics and Community
Geraint was a proud Welshman who embodied the spirit and culture of Wales throughout his life. Born and raised in the heart of Wales, he carried his heritage with pride, contributing significantly to Welsh sports.

The recognition he received in 2022, decades after his initial participation, was a testament to his lifelong dedication to his community and country.

A Lifelong Career and Personal Passions
Geraint’s professional career in banking, spanning from his early days with National Provincial Bank to his time at NatWest, took him across Wales, where he and Ann built a life together. Despite the demands of work and relocations, their home was always grounded in love and mutual respect. Outside of work, Geraint pursued many hobbies, including bowls, quizzes, rugby, and singing in the local choir. These activities were more than pastimes—they were ways he connected with his community, fostering relationships and bringing joy to those around him.
One of Geraint’s most treasured activities was his time spent with Ann at their caravan in Aberystwyth and New Quay. These quiet retreats provided them with an opportunity to reconnect with nature and each other, marking some of their happiest and most peaceful moments together.
