I’m very sorry but I just found out about Gav and needed to send this farewell message. I was a school mate of Gavin’s, meeting him in grade 1 at Bell Post Hill. Even back then, Gavin had a refreshing personality which I have never forgotten. I had planned on visiting him next year on a trip to Australia but now will have to visit with him in the here after.
My condolences to his family. He was so proud of you, especially this grandchildren.
