IN LOVING MEMORY OF MICKY GELLER

It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that we share with all of you the news that Micky Geller, from Ontario, has died suddenly.

Micky was a valued member of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette Water Ski Team, and the Ontario skiing community and he represented Water Ski Canada on many occasions including the U17 IWWF World Championships, the Jr. US Masters Water Ski Tournament, and the 2022 Pan American Championships.

As skiers and all the members of our community begin to mourn this great loss, many will acknowledge his amazing work ethic, unending passion, humour, athleticism, and charisma. During this difficult time, let us come together as a community to support one another and cherish the memories we have of Micky. The University of Lafayette at Louisiana will fly their flags at half mast on Thursday, May 18, to honour Micky and his contribution to the school and their Water Ski Team.

We invite you to share your memories by sending photos and memories that will be shared with the family. You can send the memories to kyle@wswc.ca. We will continue to update you on the ways we can all pay respect to Micky’s memory.

The family has provided obituary and funeral details that can be viewed HERE
Photos of Micky to share with the family can also be uploaded to this site.

The service will be live-streamed for those who cannot attend the funeral in person HERE 

The Geller family would like to create an award in Micky’s memory and WSWC will work with them on a suitable way to remember Micky’s wonderful contribution to our sport and everyone in it. If you wish to support the award, you can donate through the WSWC website HERE
