She also has 2 grandsons living in California with her oldest son. She and her family are very active in animal rescue and foster for a number of rescues and shelters, with a special love for the very tiny babies and the oldsters who need extra love and attention.

IN MEMORIUM
UV, OFFICE CAT
UV was born in Woodstown in 2002 and was an integral part of the Clayton Veterinary team until his passing in 2023. His duties included supervising, greeting clients, and providing comic relief and comfort to all. UV was most often found “pretending” to sleep on his chair behind the reception desk as he supervised the staff and received admiration from clients.

IN MEMORIUM
EDO, OFFICE CAT
Edo was born at Clayton Veterinary in 2003 and was a beloved member of the office family until his passing in 2022. A shy fellow, he was not often seen by clients and preferred to spend his time in the staff only areas of the hospital. There he held the very important role of offering love and companionship to the staff and doctors. He is dearly missed and lovingly remembered.
