A tribute to Missy Grider from Coffey's Vet Center

From Dr. Janice Coffey and Staff

It is with great sorrow that we say goodbye to our beloved Missy. As many of you know, Missy Grider has been an absolute anchor in our veterinary practice for nearly 15 years. She has been one to advocate for treatments and care and bend the will of the world to get help for many, many animals. Missy could always find a way to move Heaven and Earth to get help for the least of these even volunteering to foster tiny babies in her home to give them a chance at life when needed.

The terms "friend" and "employee" do not even start to do her justice. Only the word "family" comes to mind as I reflect on her years with us. Missy was and will always be family to me and I hope we can make her proud as we try to follow her example of patient advocacy and ensure that Missy's heart will always live here.

We ask your patience and compassion as we try to carry on in the face of this devastating loss to our work family and mourn the loss of one of the better angels of our time. We are here to do our best and Missy will be watching. --Dr. Janice Coffey and Staff
