To the Koenig family
Jean was not only my former coworker, but the laughter that filled the clinic. She will forever be remembered in the hearts of animal lovers and in the hearts of the animals that loved her. I know all her furry friends met her on the other side, which gives me comfort. Jean is still telling jokes and would want us to remember her that way... a hilarious, kind, and gentle soul.
