With heavy hearts, we remember and honor the life of Gavin Price, a 22-year-old resident of Rapid City whose life was tragically cut short following a shooting on June 4, 2026, on Palm Drive.
According to the Rapid City Police Department, Gavin was identified as the victim in the incident that occurred at 3350 Palm Drive. As investigators continue their work to determine the circumstances surrounding this heartbreaking event, a family, a circle of friends, and an entire community are left mourning the loss of a young man whose future held so much promise.
At just 22 years old, Gavin was in a season of life filled with hopes, dreams, and opportunities. Those who knew him will remember more than the tragic circumstances of his passing—they will remember his personality, his laughter, the moments he shared with loved ones, and the impact he made on the people fortunate enough to know him. Every life leaves a mark, and Gavin’s presence will continue to be felt through the memories he created and the relationships he built.
The loss of someone so young is especially difficult to comprehend. It leaves unanswered questions, shattered expectations, and a profound sense of sorrow. Yet amid the grief, there is also gratitude for the time shared with Gavin and for the memories that will forever remain in the hearts of those who loved him. Whether as a son, brother, relative, friend, neighbor, or colleague, Gavin’s life mattered, and his absence will be deeply felt by many.
As the Rapid City Police Department continues its active and ongoing investigation, the community waits for answers while standing in support of Gavin’s family during this unimaginably painful time. The road through grief is never easy, but the love and support of family, friends, and neighbors can provide comfort as they navigate the days ahead.
Today, we pause to remember Gavin Price not for how his life ended, but for the life he lived. We honor the memories he created, the kindness he shared, and the connections he made throughout his 22 years. Though his time on earth was far too short, his memory will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
To Gavin’s family and loved ones, we extend our deepest condolences. May you find strength in one another, comfort in cherished memories, and peace in knowing that Gavin will never be forgotten.
Rest in peace, Gavin Price. Your life mattered, your memory endures, and your legacy will remain forever in the hearts of those who loved you.
