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

Lou Walsh

Hi Gavin, I just watched Australian Story and I wanted to tell you as a parent how touched I was by what you have achieved. I'm sorry this horrible disease has created so much pain for you and your family. You have not only touched your families hearts but many Australians in a positive way. People like you can only be seen as truly wonderful beings who are capable of so much love! I lost my Dad a couple of years ago to a most of horrible disease and he was an inspirational man like you and he gave me such a great gift of tolerance and respect for people. This was the greatest gift he could give me because everything good I do now reminds me of him. I wish you all the best and Gus will always hold your strength and deep love in his heart to face whatever lies ahead. You are a very good man! RUOK is a great accomplishment!
Thank you Gavin
Best wishes Lou.
