We are heartbroken to share that our dear friend, brother, and son Dave / Chaitanyadev Das has passed away. Many people would know that Dave experienced mental health problems. We would like to honour his legacy by raising funds in his name to support Rotary Health mental health research. Dave was a vibrant soul with a hunger for adventure and challenge. He engaged with many diverse communities in his life and will be deeply missed by those who he touched. Dave would be very pleased to have funds raised in his honour for mental health research.

As Dave's fundraising campaign comes to a close, we would like to express our deepest appreciation to everyone for your donations. I know Dave would be really honoured that so many people cared about him and gave so generously. We have raised $20,716 for Australian Rotary Health mental health research, plus an additional $1445.45 was raised at CrikeyCon with the generous assistance of Glyn. If you were not able to attend Dave's service and wanted to view the recording, or wanted to reminisce with some photos of him, the shared Google Drive containing this content is available here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1M4EqpdikdPW9-mKjQkn3p7s2yyE--iwg?usp=sharing I personally welcome anyone who would ever like to chat about Dave, share some memories, or talk about their feelings to contact me any time at: mali.jorm@gmail.com Much love to you all <3

Dave, we only met briefly but that short exchange will forever leave me wishing that we had worked together more. Even with that short encounter you struck me as smart, interesting and above all, a good man who strove to improve the world around him. None of us know what follows this life, but I hope that wherever you are that you have found peace, and that the best efforts of those of us who remain make you proud of us. Rest well. And I fondly hope that I will see you on the other side.
