  David Tonkin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tonkin’s dedication to public service was in evidence through his honorary service as an eye surgeon to Adelaide public hospitals and the initiation, through the Lions Club, of Australia’s first public screening programme for glaucoma.
Tonkin quickly gained a reputation as a progressive member of the LCL and was an early supporter of the Liberal Movement faction created by former premier Steele Hall, although Tonkin remained with the LCL when the Liberal Movement split from it.
Tonkin was awarded the Liberal Party's outstanding achievement award in 2000 by Prime Minister, John Howard and died in his sleep at Menglers Hill, Barossa Valley, South Australia, on 2 October 2000 while attending a music festival.
