Gavin Warner Eriksson, 35, of New London, NH, passed away unexpectedly the morning of Tuesday, April 19, 2022.Gavin grew up in Sunapee, NH, son of the late Gilbert Eriksson and Christine Eriksson, maternal grandson of the late David Warner and Helena Warner of Melrose, MA.

He was a highly skilled craftsman, building stone walls all over the Upper Valley and beyond throughout the seasons, with his favorite time to build being in the crisp autumn air with his brother and friends. An avid music lover, he attended Full Sail University, earning a degree in sound engineering. A nature and animal lover, Gavin felt most at home in the outdoors, and enjoyed hiking, skiing and swimming in his home of New England. Gavin was loved by many, and had friends all over the country from touring with his favorite bands, Phish and The Breakfast. He truly loved and cherished his vibrant live music community and family he was a part of; he will be terribly missed by those who knew the kind, sensitive and intelligent soul Gavin was.Family and friends are invited to attend a Funeral Mass at St. Patrick's Catholic Church, 32 Beech St., Newport, NH on Saturday, April 30th at noon followed by an internment at Eastman Cemetery, 490 N.

"Until one has loved an animal, a part of one´s soul remains unawakened."

Gavin´s soul was very much awakened in this sense. His spirit always shone the brightest when in the uncomplicated presence of animals. He had so much love to give them and they in turn truly enjoyed his company.

Gavin, may you continue to experience the type of healing and peace that only our animal friends can bring us, as you continue on your soul´s journey. May Little Girl, Draco and Bunny help you along the way.
