Dear Tim and Mike,
Our deepest sympathy to you and your family on the passing of your father. A man who has touched so many other lives will be well remembered.

My memories of Mr. Tom Gavin were of him being one of the kindest and most generous of adults I remember growing up on Exchange Ave, the few actually.

When it came to the finer points of baseball or anything else for that matter (free throw contests come to mind), he was truly gifted and devoted. I have no idea how long he managed Little League teams in Lansing, but it seemed like forever (probably longer than most would remember).

He was always there at Lions Stadium,...

Our sincere sympathies to the Gavin Family. RIP Coach Tom.

Tom was one of the finest men I have ever known. Also an outstanding baseball coach. In the many years that I knew Tom, his dedication to his team was always apparant. One of the best. He will be missed. May God bless.

To the entire Gavin family. Please accept our heartfelt condolences on the passing of Mr. Gavin. I had the opportunity to play for coach Gavin for Kiwanis in Lansing little league. He was passionate about baseball and taught us alot. I know he will be missed. May his memory be eternal
