There is a poem written by Linda Ellis called “The Dash Poem” which describes the period between when we are born and when our life on earth ends called the “Dash”.

It is suggested that to some people the poem means to boldly live a life that impassions you, whilst positively impacting your family, friends, community and even strangers. Our Dash need not be perfect it’s an ongoing journey to living a life filled with joy and intention and looks different for everyone.

David Rawson certainly embodies someone who truly lived his Dash so whole heartedly.

None of us individually could possibly convey in words here all of what David Rawson meant to us in our times spent in his presence, so this tribute page will mean so much for many years to come to refer to the collective narratives from so many of you who wish to contribute words to in some way   encapsulate


So blessed we were a part of your 'Dash' Dad, Grandad and David!!!

Love always Paul, Christine, Ella, Jessie and Harry.  The "Aussie's"
