Gavan loved deeply and was deeply loved. He had the biggest heart and gave the best hugs. He was the most loving and loyal son, brother, dad, grandpa, and friend anyone could ever have. We were often entertained by stories of his adventures, including skydiving in Arizona, and trips to Florida and Alaska. Family was most important to him, and all his many friends were considered family, too.
Son, your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words, missed beyond measure.
