In memory of Dean Hawthorn

By Melissa Thomas

In memory of Dean Hawthorn who sadly lost his battle with cancer on the 28 September 2020. Dean was a former Cadet with the Victorian Air Training Corps, a Solider in the Australian Army, an Aviation Rescue Fire Fighter, Training Officer at Defence Explosive Ordnance Training School at Orchard Hills as well as an Officer in the Air Force Cadets acting as 323SQN Executive Officer and 3 Wing Staff Officer Wing Safety.

Though we have lost this amazing person, his legacy will live on. He would never let the pain slow him down but rather he worked hard to ensure everyone enjoyed the moments.
His favourite saying when we asked him how he was, he would say "I'm good and thanks for asking!".

I invite you to donate in memory of Dean Hawthorn, so your gift can go towards beating cancer and helping those still affected by it today. Thank you, God Bless, the Hawthorn Family

Thank you to my supporters

In Fond, Loving Memory of Dean. Hard to believe such a lively bloke has gone. Much love and big hugs to Lisa and the whole family through what feels at the moment, a horrible time. You've all done a terrific job! But, remember the times that made you laugh and he'll always be there. And there would be heaps haha! Love Andrew Black!

It has been an absolute pleasure to have met Dean Hawthorn Sensei through Kendo and worked with him on the AKR Executive Committee. Dean is the most positive, cheerful, charismatic, loving, selfless person I have met. A gentle giant and leader that will be dearly missed.
