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

Gavin, Today was a bad day for me. My bad days I want off the bus, and just go back home.
Then I watched the episode of Australian Story about you and R You Okay day.

Thank you for your story.
Thank you for your heart,
Thank you for the bravery, insight and wisdom you've shared.
Thank you for your honesty.
Thank you for understanding the battle of depression.
Thank you for trying to help those who are in so much pain (like me)
Thank you for caring for the unknown souls who suffer alone.
Thank you for talking about it.
Thank you for your gift of selflessness and love.
Thank you for the lives you've saved because someone took heed to ask - and actually listen to the answer....
Thank you for the beauty of your life on this earth and know your spirit lives on regardless of your human body no longer providing a physical home.
The light of you will glow forever in the hearts of those who know and love you dearly
The strength of your love will embrace, surround, support and comfort your beloved family.
They may not see it but they will feel it for the soul's precious energy never ends....it just changes.

You are an inspiration and a courageous man with an incredible legacy for too short a life.

It's not fair. life never is.

May you be blessed with peace and grace when you arrive back to all of mankind's spiritual home and be reunited with your Dad.

Thank you, for everything.
God bless you and yours.
You will be okay. Promise.
