I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to the community of West Seattle, and in particular to the wonderful clients of West Seattle Veterinary Hospital. For the past eight years, I have had the privilege of caring for many of your canine and feline family members. In the process I have met some truly remarkable people and pets, and formed some friendships that I know will survive for many years to come. The support I have felt from the community and from the clientele here has been tremendous. I feel extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work and develop professional relationships within the same special community that my family and I have lived in and been involved in for the past seventeen years.

This spring my family and I are moving back to Montana to begin a new chapter in our lives. While we are very excited to be returning to our first home, the roots we have established in West Seattle make it a difficult move nonetheless. As with any change, the joy and anticipation we are experiencing is tempered with some degree of apprehension and sadness in what we leave behind.

West Seattle Veterinary Hospital has been a wonderful setting in which to apply my trade. I know it will continue to grow and develop in response to the ever-changing needs of its patients and clients. I leave my best wishes with everyone here for continued success in the future. Thank you and goodbye.
