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

Gav,

You may not remember me mate, but we played a lot of touch footy together back in the day!

I live in San Francisco now and so didn't see your story but Scotty (Bowen) sent me a text last night telling me about it, and I've since been online reading everything I can, dating back to your dad.

I have four small children, Jacob (9) - who you met when very young!, Maizy (8), Rory (6) and Toby (3 months), and while I love them with all my heart, we forget sometimes that work isn't priority, and that the football can wait and so can whatever text message just came through.

Thank you for the reminder, and for the inspiration.

Talk soon buddy!

John
