Robert was a great personal friend and an indomitable opponent of those who promote the fluoridation of drinking water. For many years he has been the leading challenger within Ireland of the long-term fluoridation of the Republic's water supplies, and he was passionately critical of those who promote its use in callous disregard to the welfare of Irish children.
Over the past few years we have worked closely together to compile a dossier of damning evidence on the Irish and British government's deliberate violation of European medicinal law, medical and professional ethics and human rights. The dossier has been the foundation of his long-running Formal Petition to the European Parliament to have the practice banned within Europe.
Robert's dedication to this confrontation has been legendary, and he leaves behind him a legacy that deserves world-wide recognition. He was a modest man, always seeking to ensure that his arguments were soundly based and clearly argued. There are none who have contributed more to the exposure of the scale of the damage that this practice has caused to the children of Ireland. Although his cheerful voice and warm personality will be greatly missed, the battle that he has waged will not end until his objective has been achieved.
Remember Robert with affection and love -
he was one of us, and will be sorely missed.
