I just wanted to say thank you to each and every one of you for the amazing job you are all doing right now. It definitely is a difficult time for everyone, and I know there must be days where it’s more difficult than others.

I think that you all deserve to be congratulated. I’m sure it’s not easy to always do the social distancing and protecting yourselves, your families, friends and all the residents at Banfields as well. But thank you for doing all that you are. I appreciate it, as I’m sure does so many others. Keep up the great work. Ray says thank you.
