I've used quite a few Markdown editors. I know nothing about CentOS, so I can't recommend anything for that OS. On Windows, I like WriteMonkey. In Linux, the best I've seen is ReText, but last I checked, it's developer was no longer supporting an Ubuntu PPA for the program making installation less smooth on Ubuntu.
Since Markdown is a pure text file with formatting marks inserted, you could easily edit such a file with LO. It sounds like what you're asking is a way to convert the Markdown file to a LO format. I'm not sure of a direct way of doing that. You might try Pandoc, an online file converter. My greatest frustration with Markdown, aside from its many different flavors, is that there doesn't seem to be a complete Markdown solution anywhere. At best, there are add-on tools to some existing products (like your Geany), but I've not found anything (at least in the free-software realm) that actually includes everything you need. I've found myself using LaTeX to create HTML files. It's htlatex converter does a nice job and creates an easily editable .CSS file. And, after nearly 40 years of development, it's really complete.
