Obituary of Geoffrey West Senn

Senn, Geoffrey West (Westis), age 45, passed away peacefully at his home in Minnetonka, MN, on July 30, 2024 after a 36- month battle with colon cancer. Throughout this difficult journey he showed incredible strength, courage, a positive attitude, and so much undying love for his family.

He is survived by his wife Maria Carolina Olaya, son Kenneth Owen, daughter Emma Sofía, parents Geoff & Nancy, brother Mark Wade, sisters Amber and Ali Wright (Erik), in-laws Uriel & Emma Olaya, brother in-laws Edwar, Wilson (Sandra), Cristian (Angela), Felipe (Lina), nephews Zachary Dane (Abby), Geoffrey Charles, Juan Esteban and Agustin, nieces Madeleine, Salomé, Valeria and Mariana, uncles, aunts, and many lifelong friends.

Geoff attended Hopkins High School, University of Minnesota (Duluth), and the University of Miami (FL). He then returned home to truly enjoy his chosen professions: as an educator passing on to hundreds of students of all ages his love for music; and as a professional musician performing on his trumpet with numerous bands within the Twin Cities jazz community.

Mass at St. Therese Church of Deephaven, (18325 Minnetonka Blvd, Wayzata, MN. 55391) on Friday, August 9th at 12 PM with visitation two hours (10AM-12 PM) prior, and reception to follow. Interment at Groveland Cemetery following reception.
