Lost The Fight

4nhotrodHe who dies with the most toys is dead

Most of you might know Gavin whose avitar was FYRBRTHN. Gavin bought his Cat a few years back and soon got involved with the small Pantera group we have here in the Great White North.
It didn't take long to find out what a super guy he was.
He was unfortunately hit with brain cancer a few years ago.
He passed away peacefully at his home this morning.
Rest in peace, Brother.
Will

I felt a profound sadness when I read this post. For a man I have never met. Strange how that can happen. Rest in Peace.

Although we didn't know Gavin long, he was an enthusiastic member of our group, a true "Pantera guy" and we will miss him greatly. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife and family. God bless, brother.

Gavin didn't make it to Kingston this past September, so I didn't get to meet him, but my prayers go out to him and his family in this very sad time.

How old was he?

Wow, I greatly remember his posts, remember the posting of his tough encounter with cancer. So sorry to hear; blessings to his family. Great photos too guys - I bet his family would appreciate them if you know how to reach them.

Gavin was 50 yrs young. That's his lovely wife Tamara laughing with him.
Everytime I went to see him during his fight, he would praise his wife. She was by his side every minute.
I'll be going to the wake and will post an 8x10 picture and a letter of condolences from his Pantera Brotheren.
If you're feeling up to it, a donation to the cancer society would be nice.

My condolences to his family. Like INZOWHO said, I too felt a sadness for the passing of someone whom I've never met. As has been said so often here before, we here are a family. Take care of yourselves my brothers!

It's always tragic to hear of the loss of a brother in any family we're a part of - especially at such a young age. My heart goes out to his family & may he RIP.
