It is with very great sadness that the ESCRS announces the death of our beloved colleague and friend Dr Peter Barry, who passed away on Thursday, 26 May 2016 after a short illness. The Board, Committees and members of the Society extend their most heartfelt sympathy to his wife Carmel, and family David, Stephen, Simon and Lisa.
Peter was a founding member of the ESCRS, and served as its treasurer, president, director and guiding light. He was a person of great vision who made an immense contribution not only to the success of the ESCRS but to the wider world of ophthalmology. We cannot begin to contemplate his loss. Reposing at St. Vincent’s Mortuary Chapel on Sunday May 29, from 4 pm to 6pm prior to his removal to the Church of Our Lady Queen of Peace, Merrion Road arriving at 6.30 pm. Funeral Mass on Monday morning at 10 am followed by burial at Shanganagh Cemetery. No flowers please. Donation in lieu to Irish Cancer Society.(www.cancer.ie) “We have lost a gentleman”
