Patrick Fanahan (P.F) Fox

Deepest sympathy to Olive and the extended family on Pat's death. He had a long and active career dedicated to teaching, research and publication. His contribution to dairy science will be remembered through his extensive list of publications and more particularly through the huge number of national and international postgraduate students, who benefitted from his guidance and generous support. May he rest in peace

I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Prof. Fox, a true pioneer in the field of dairy technology. His contributions to the field were monumental, and his legacy will continue to influence the researchers for years to come.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences. My thoughts are with his family and colleagues during this difficult time.

Very sorry to hear of PF’s passing. His curiosity, generosity and engagement are fondly remembered. RIP.

I am writing from Turkey. I am a scientist working on Dairy science, I have also worked in the Dairy industry. I learnt this profession by reading the books and articles written by Prof. Fox. His works and the scientists he has trained will cause his name to live forever. I had the opportunity to know him personally and I know that he is a great scientist as well as a kind-hearted and helpful person.
I would like to thank him for his valuable contributions to humanity and I would like to express my sincere condolences to his family. Rest in peace

So sorry to hear about Prof. Fox. I studied under him for several years in the 80s and early 90s. He was a great teacher and a lovely person.

I send deepest sympathy to the Fox family on your sad loss. Pat was a truly exceptional man. May he rest in eternal peace. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.

Our deepest condolences to the entire Fox family on the passing of Pat, a renowned Scientist, but first and foremost a gentleman.

We have remained in touch over the years, Pat always expressing an interest in us and our family. May he Rest in Peace

My deepest condolences to Olive and all the Fox family on the passing of Prof Fox. Not only was he a giant of Irish science who made enormous contributions to the field of dairy science (for which he is renowned, and will be long remembered, worldwide) but he was a genuine polymath who loved to share his endless curiosity and his knowledge on a huge range of subjects. In particular, he loved to encourage the learning of others, and I myself never had a meeting with him where I did not feel I learned something new.

It is genuinely the end of an era.

May he rest in peace.

Deepest sympathies to the Fox family and friends at this time. Only a few people leave indelible marks on our lives, Prof is one of those. Rest in Peace Prof, you have left an incredible legacy 🙏🏻

Our deepest condolences to you Olive, Kathy, Deirdre PD on the sad passing of your beloved Husband Patrick and Dad. May He Rest In Peace. 🙏

Sincere sympathy to Olive, Kathy, Deirdre, PD and the extended Fox family on the sad passing of much loved Professor Fox. I was truly privileged to have PF as an inspiring lecturer when an undergraduate, as a mentor when a postgraduate and as a wonderful colleague and friend for many years. PF was globally recognized as a leading expert in Dairy Science and his publications are core references for students, researchers, academics and industry all over the world. However, PF had little interest in fame. He was a true University Professor who championed the quest for knowledge and who believed that his most important job was to educate and train the next generation of dairy scientists and researchers- in many ways his greatest legacy. PF was immensely curious about the world around him and had other interests of course including history, politics, and sport and we enjoyed many lively discussions in the tea room on topics ranging from role of the Lombard invaders to whether Tiger Woods was indeed the best golfer - an education in itself. The tributes listed here from all over the world and the attendance by so many of PF ‘s former students, colleagues and representatives from the food industry at the funeral ceremonies over the past few days are testimony to the respect and fondness we all had for Prof. A truly remarkable man who had such a hugely positive impact on so many lives.
Rest easy Prof. and thank you. You will be greatly missed.

Sincere sympathy to Therese and the Fox Family on your sad loss. R.I.P.
