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.

Hey Gav

It's wonderful to see that you, Maryanne & the kids are surrounded by such respect, love & caring.

Whilst Cyndi & I have not seen you as much as we used to in the SOM days, we want you to know you've been very much in our thoughts of recent times.

From reading the contributions to this blog you should take great comfort & indeed satisfaction, that you have touched so many people's lives from so many walks of life and in so many different ways.

Working at SOM, the famous SOM bar, the Lakes Golf Course, & forgive me, your infamous slow putting, the Bondi – Bronte run, everyone has their own memories.

I would like to say here, and I know I speak for so many people who know you that, in your darkest moments, you and Maryanne are an absolute inspiration to all of us.

RUOK Day is a brilliant & much needed initiative, and it is a true legacy to you & a constant reminder to all of us of a challenge you faced with such bravery.

I'm sure there will be many bottles of varying fluids emptied all around the world each year on that day to serve as a lasting memory for those who know you, and I for one, will play my part.

I know we will all make sure it continues to be a success.

Be proud & fly high mate – it is an honour to know you.

Ron & Cyndi Taylor
