Gavin, there are no words to describe how we are all feeling. I am devastated to have lost my ‘Special Nephew’ who I loved so much. We spent so many happy times together and you left me with some wonderful memories. You were a ray of sunshine, a breath of fresh air. I will never forget your smile and laughter which was always so infectious. Until we meet again sweetheart, my love always.
