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

Hugh Jackman

hey gav, i am pretty technically challenged so i hope this gets to you . i have not known you for long, and most of it has been through the internet....but you have inspired me, and like many aussies reminded me not to take our mates wellbeing for granted.
your passion and determination to see things through is extraordinary...you have created a great platform to help everyone in times of need. what a legacy that is. and now to find out you were doing all this whilst fighting a huge battle for your own life is even more extraordinary. it speaks volumes about you mate. if anyone would be excused for being self involved it would be you gav, but no, even now you are focusing all your attention on others. what a wake up call to me, and everyone. what a lesson you are giving. thanks mate. not only for that reminder, but for your ability to galvanise a movement, and still do it with such a sense of humour. it is clear from reading the blog that you are a rich man gav.....with great love from your family and friends surrounding you. now its time to let others look after you.
