I first met Gavin four years ago at our college open evening. I knew he was the one as soon as he smiled at me. He came over and we started chatting. He was confident and funny, and his great personality just blew me away. We spoke everyday after and he proposed to me on my birthday last year. It was the happiest day of my life, apart from the day I met him.
Gavin was known as a livewire. He loved partying and being with his mates, and was also a complete "Mummy's boy". He would do ANYTHING for his mum (or her cooking)!! He had an amazing sense of humour, constantly making jokes, songs or doing impressions, but at the same time we all knew that he was thoughtful and caring. He was a great, great lad. Although not perfect, his heart was definately in the right place and he was an incredible person.
Gavin was and still is my life. The air I breathe. I can't imagine my life without him. I don't know how I can have a life without him. He was my soul mate. We both knew it as does everyone else. We have spent almost everyday since we met, together and we have had some amazing moments which will be in my heart forever. He was the best thing to ever happen to me. I don't regret ANYTHING. I am so frightened to live without me, but I know he is with me, for it would take more than the earth and heaven for him to leave my side. He was my first love, and he will always have a special place inside of my heart and mind.
Gavin wrote me a letter which I read after he passed, which included a quote from the film "Mr Magorium's Wonder Imporium":
"I am not asking you to be happy that I must go.
Iām only asking that you turn the page. Continue reading. And let the next story begin.
And if anyone ever asks what became of me you relay my life in all its wander, and end it with a simple, and modest, 'he died'.ā
Gavin, you have been incredible. I will cherish every moment I spent with you and I was incredibly blessed to have had you. You will always be the love of my life and I will miss you sadly. I love you Gavin, for all eternity, I love you.
Goodbye my baby xxxxxxxxxx
Merry Christmas, my baby. Can't believe I'm spending it without you. I miss you so much and I wish you were here. I'd give anything to have you safe and sound and back in my arms. This was supposed to be our Christmas, having a laugh with our family. Christmas dinner was your favourite!! I should be smiling and enjoying it. But you're all I can think about. The only thing that I can smile about is that I still have the beautiful memories of Christmas's we shared, and they will have to be my rock.
Loving and missing you always,
Katie

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below.
With tiny lights, like Heaven's stars, reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away that tear;
For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear.
But the sounds of music can't compare with the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you the joy their voices bring.
For it is beyond description to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart.
But I am not so far away, we really aren't apart.
I cannot tell you of the splendor or the peace inside this place
Can you imagine Christmas with our Savior, face to face?
I will ask him to light your spirit as I tell him of your love.
So then pray for one another as you lift your eyes above.
So be happy for me, dear ones, you know I hold you dear.
And be glad I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
I sent you each a special gift, from my heavenly home above.
I sent you each a memory of my undying love.
After all, love is a gift more precious than pure gold.
It was always most important in the stories Jesus told.
Please love and keep each other, as my Father said to do.
For I can't count the blessing or love he has for each of you.
So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away that tear.
Remember, I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
Who do I turn to now, Gav? I could talk to you but there'd be no answer. Who do I hug now, Gav? No one else could give me those special hugs or the feelings I got from them. Who do I kiss now, Gav? No one else can give me a special Gavin kiss. Who do I laugh with now, Gav? No one can make me laugh like you can. Who's arms do I fall asleep in now, Gav? Theres no one else who can sleep in your side of the bed. Who do I shout at for leaving the lamp on at night now, Gav? It would never be the same.
I could list endless things I miss about you.
You were the most funny, confident, caring person I have met. You were truly a beautiful person with a big, loving heart.
I was so lucky to have your love. To have you for four beautiful years.
I will miss you and everything about you for the rest of my life.
Your death has left a big empty gap in my heart and life that will never be filed by anyone again.
Loving and missing you always,
Katie

"I remember last day
We were so in love in special way
You made me feel all right
Your love keeps me alive.
But things went wrong for us
Maybe we were not destined to be together
Baby before I let you go
Let me say I love you.
I love you so, that’s why I let go
You are forever in my heart
Baby I miss you, your kisses
But someday I’ll find my way."
Life isn't the same without you, Gav.
Loving and missing you always,
Katie xxxx
A CHRISTMAS WISH.

MERRY CHRISTMAS ANGEL
A Christmas Wish
How very much you're missed
Isn't easy to explain
For, words never could convey
The sadness and the pain.
Although gone now from this life
You've left memories to treasure
That are the sweetest kind
And will softly stay forever.
I’ll miss you tomorrow
When the toothpaste cap is on
I’ll miss you tomorrow
When I must unlock the front door
I’ll miss you tomorrow
When mine is the only reflection in the mirror
But I will celebrate today
The memories of you
~ Claudet Monroe
Loving and missing you always,

"We’ve shared our lives these many years.
You’ve held my hand; you’ve held my heart.
So many blessings, so few tears
Yet for a moment, we must part.
The memories you’ve given me
Are times I’ve shared with my best friend
I’ll hold them, Love. Right here they’ll be
Until we share our lives again."
Loving and missing you always,
Katie

For You Katie From Your Beautiful Gavin xxx
x X x light a candle, see it glow, watch it dance, when you feel low, think of me, Think of light, I'll always be here, day or night,
a candle flickers, out of sight, but in your heart, I still burn bright,
think not of sadness, that I'm not near, think of gladness, and joyous cheer, I have not left, I am not gone, I'm here to stay
my beautiful Katie, so when you light a candle and you see it glow
and you watch it dance in your heart you'll know
that I would never leave you even when you feel so blue
I'm sitting up here with the Lord and now watching over you x X x
Happy 21st for yesterday my baby! Sorry I didn't come on and say it, I was at your grave all day wasn't I?
I hope you had an amazing 21st. I wish we could've spent it together with all our friends and family like we'd plannned, but I know you would've had a big party in heaven.
I miss and love you more than I could ever say, Gav. Everyday is like fighting a battle I will never win. Life is empty without your smile, your touch, your laugh, your smell, your cuddles, your kisses. Just.... you. You were perfect.
I hope you had an amazing birthday, baby.
I love you forever.
Loving and missing you always,
Katie
