Theodore "Ted" Geanis

Theodore (Ted) Geanis, a devoted family man and loving person passed away on October 11, 2025, at the age of 88. Born on January 10, 1937, in Cambridge Massachusetts, Theodore spent many years working in the electronic industry and small electrical jobs for many years before a much-deserved retirement. When he wasn’t at work or spending time with his family, Ted loved to be on the water fishing in the ocean and always up for a good game of cribbage.

Ted was an inspiration to people. He was “The Rock” to his family and the communities he was part of. He had a heart full of honor and wished for everyone to feel loved and a priority no matter who the person he was speaking to at the time. He was a devoted Husband and Father and made sure the home was always filled with love.

Those left to cherish memories of Ted include daughter, Elaine (Carolyn Legg) Geanis; sons, Anthony (Donna), Peter (Valerie), George (Carla) and Ted A. (Jennifer Walters); grandchildren, Frank Call and Kristen Maxwell, Cassandra, Necole, and Christopher; several great-grandchildren; numerous nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.

Ted is preceded in death by his father George Geanis, Mother Alice Geanis (Konides), Brother Peter, Sister Bess Smith and his Wife Rose Geanis (Giovino).

Theodore and Rose were married on October 21, 1961, and happily until her passing in 2006.

A service to honor Ted’s life will be held in the coming days at Dello Russo Funeral Home in Medford, Massachusetts. Burial will occur at Oak Grove Cemetery in Medford.

The Newcomer family and staff are honored to serve the Geanis family.
