Tribute to the Late PDG Michael Pedler 

This article is a excerpt from Tribute given by Noel Trevaskis OAM at Michael’s funeral.  

Michael was a committed Rotarian who began his journey when he was selected by Blackwood Rotary, to attend the Rotary Youth Leadership Award when he was 17 years old. The Rotary club then asked him to be a charter member of Blackwood Rotaract in 1977.  He joined Rotary Club of Canberra South in 1986 and apart from a year in the Toorak Rotary Club in 1997 he was a member at Canberra South until it closed in 2017 then becoming a member of Tuggeranong Rotary. Tuggeranong made Michael an Honorary member in 2021.

Michael's Rotary involvements include two stints as Club President Canberra South, twice 1989-2000, 1999-2000.  Because of his love for the Rotary Foundation, he was Chair of the Foundation for a number of years at both Canberra South and Tuggeranong.  At District level he served in various roles including Chair, at different times, of the Rotaract, Scholarship, Membership Attraction and Engagement, and Fellowship committees.  At Zone level he was the first Endowment and Major Gifts Adviser for our Zone 8.  In 2010 Michael and Julia became Major Donors to the Rotary Foundation.

            D9705 promotes DEI
            Rotary - Respect in relation to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
            Rotary International has committed to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion and has stated that:
            As a global network that strives to build a world where people unite and take action and has to create lasting change, Rotary values diversity and celebrates the contributions of people of all backgrounds, regardless of their age, ethnicity, race, colour, abilities, religion, socioeconomic status, culture, sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
            District D9705 strongly endorses this statement and notes that the respectful treatment of all members – as well as of all others with whom Rotarians connect - is essential to furthering goodwill and cooperation.  Whatever our condition, we cannot expect respect ourselves if we fail to give it to others.
            Uluru Statement from the Heart
            During the recent Annual Conference, Reconciliation, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion were the themes around much of the conversations, talks, projects and entertainment. One key element of the Reconciliation journey is the 2017 Uluru Statement from the Heart.
            This short 4 minute video expresses the Statement by Mr Thomas Mayor at a recent Rotary dinner in Melbourne. It is worth the 4 minutes!
