RIP Gav

R.I.P. Gav - 21/9/2011 - Our beloved Gavin Larkin passed away this afternoon at 3.28pm. He was surrounded by his family and the love that he has created. He will never be forgotten for who he was, how he lived and what he has left behind. I know I speak on behalf of all that knew him when I say Gav, thank you for being you. The world is a better place for having had you in it.
The Larkin family would like to thank everybody who has contributed to this blog. The messages have been a constant source of support and wonderful memories that the family will cherish forever. They have been overwhelmed by all the good wishes, lovely words, food & flowers. The community around Gavin, Maryanne, Gus, Josie and Van has been wonderful and made an enormous difference. Thank you to all.

May we suggest, if you would like to offer further support, in lieu of flowers, please make a donation to one of the following nominated causes: RUOK? Day Donations or Cure For Life

Hey Gav,
From singing karaoke at Potters Tavern in the Hunter, to late nights in Hollywood, to sculling (f**kin’ good) port at Roy’s in Hawaii, the last 20 years could not have had more laughs or been more memorable, thanks largely to you. You’ve always had an infectious enthusiasm for everything you’ve done and everyone around you, and the Leura Classic (amongst many things) will be that bit poorer for losing you but remain that much better for having had you.
As with everything that you’ve thrown yourself at in life, the strength and determination you’ve shown in battling everything that’s been thrown at you over the last couple of years has been amazing, and been matched only by the courage and grace you’ve shown over the last couple of weeks. You are truly one-of-a-kind and it’s been my great fortune to have you as a friend.
You’ll be very sadly missed mate, but remembered always (especially on that first weekend of May).
Love to you, Maz, and the kids
Richie
