I first met Gavin when he came to the Playground in the park next to the zoo, where we Finns were having a get-together. He was very keen to form a Finnish Baseball (pesapallo) team. Of course his enthusiasm was catching and a group of us started meeting to train. He never let on how he felt about our team of members from children to old people in our 70's. We never had enough players for even one team let alone for two, to be able to play 'properly'. It was a shame, as Gavin was a great and patient and pleasant coach. All the same, we had a good time, but as there weren't enough Finns in Auckland, we eventually had to give up. I am grateful to Gavin for the time and effort he gave for us. He would have made a great pesapallo player in Finland! Sending my warmest sympathy to Gavin's family and friends. Thank you, Gavin!
