Vale Dwight King


It was with great sadness that the Dahlia Society of Victoria learnt that Dwight King died aged 83 on Tuesday 6 May 2025.
A moving account of Dwight's many accomplishments is here: Dwight King Obituary
There is one inaccuracy in the Obituary: "He was an active member of the Dahlia Society of Ohio and served as the past president of the Dahlia Society of Australia."

In fact, Dwight was the past president of the Dahlia Society of Victoria, filling that position for a record 16 years before before passing the baton to Pam Albutt at in 2022 and returning with his wife Alice to the USA to live at Lakeside Ohio.

The DSV owes Dwight an immense debt of gratitude for stabilizing the Society when he took over and leaving it in a very healthy state when he departed.

Dwight was planning to visit Australia in 2026 and we were looking forward to seeing him again at the State Dahlia Show.  For all those who knew and admired him, the news of his sudden death has been a great shock.
