Gavin Jones set the bar high with his style, commitment and passion. His work brought a change to how Indigenous people were portrayed in media. His work promoted positive stories, strong culture and Indigenous achievement. I was proud to have worked with Gavin, and I was humbled that he also took time to encourage me to go into business 14 years ago.

He was an inspiration and someone who I would always make me feel happier after seeing. I will never forget his smile. Best wishes to his partner, his family, and his colleagues. You will shine in the sky as a very bright star, Gavin.
