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

Peter Koller

Peter (Pepsi) Koller here , well while I was pretty early on the scene (1987) I obviously wasn’t in the cool group , just hanging with my great mates Slim Deal and Slipper Dick Tour in front of the BHP post , I did feel very privileged to have caught up with some of the gang for the dinner at Porteno on Cleveland St recently. In essence I just couldn’t believe your attitude and on subsequent investigation into your life, in the say 20 year gap, I am gob smacked still , at what you have fitted in – talk about four/five lives in one mate!
It was also a special to have given you a lift home (because we both live in the East) in my partner’s little Toyota with all the marketing advertising for KY Gel. You were extremely brave getting into that car with another beautiful “gay” (hell knows that’s what everyone driving by was thinking) man. Many wouldn’t and haven’t including Cookie (He's always been the shy & retiring type). We really did have a good ol' chat on the way back to Clovelly and I’ll remember that always.
My thoughts are with you and your family Gav.
Peter Koller.
