ADRIAN – Geoffrey “Geoff” A. Bell, 72 of Adrian, passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, November 13, 2021. Geoff was born September 26, 1949, in Buffalo, New York, to Charlotte Tobin (Foltz) and Dario Robert Bell. He graduated in 1969 from Brother Rice High School and then from Eastern Michigan University in 1973. On May 12, 1972, Geoff married his high school sweetheart, Barbara Ann Quinn in Birmingham, MI. Geoff was the founder and owner of Bell Chevrolet Cadillac in Adrian. He loved hunting, fishing and golfing, but his favorite role was being “Grandpa Geoff”. His family or “his people” were everything to him. Survivors include his wife of 49 years, Barbara; children, Matt (Laura) Bell and Kristin (James) Illingworth; and his treasured grandchildren, Morgan and Parker Bell and Grace, Ava, Evan, and Luke Illingworth. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother Greg; and an infant son at birth. All services will be private. There will be a Celebration of Life at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions be made to Hospice of Lenawee.
