The
Federation of the European Dental Industry mourns for
Dennis Carroll
who passed away after a short but terminal illness on Wednesday 10th June
in Scotland.
Dennis was a longtime reprensentative of the British Dental Trade Association
in the FIDE meetings and member of the FIDE Executive Committee from 2001-2005.
He also was one of the founders of the ADDE-FIDE European Dental Market
Survey, which was published for the first time in 2001. In the following
years he promoted this survey with wide commitment and conveyed this economic
survey at our annual press conference, for the last time during the IDS
in March 2009 in Cologne.
Dennis was a dedicated colleague and friend and also a loyal and faithful
representative of our Federation, who promoted the interests of the dental
industry with fervour. We will remember him with thanks and gratitude and
what he achieved in his work for the dental industry. In this difficult
time of loss we wish his partner Ms. Kath Payne and his family our sympathy
and God`s loving comfort and blessings.
