Thank you all for your touching and kind words, stories and memories.   I have been so touched reading them all.  It has been an incredibly hard few months but have been in Europe recently with family and friends which has helped. Myself and the kids are coping day by day.

We received the autopsy report and sadly Gav had an undiagnosed rhythmic heart condition so was not a heart attack after all.

I have been kindly gifted a digital photo frame so if you have any photos or videos of Gav you would like to share, please email them as attachments to:

elliot-olivia@ourskylight.com

Myself and the kids would be delighted to see more of Gavan!

Finally, I will be in Sydney for the tribute for Gav so please let us know if you will attend so we can secure numbers. Details are:
