Dear Valued Clients,

On Thursday, April 3rd Best Friends will be closed for the day to attend a memorial lunch and services for our beloved colleague, Erin Cleary, who passed away on Friday, March 28th following a brief battle with pancreatic cancer.
Erin was a cherished part of Best Friends since 2013. She loved helping clients and truly wanted to make a difference in your lives with thoughtful, personal attention. She loved all the connections she made with each of you.
Erin was an integral, important part of our care team and will be deeply missed.
We regret any inconvenience and greatly appreciate your kindness, patience, and understanding during this truly difficult time for our team.

Thank you to all who have shared such wonderful, heartfelt thoughts about Erin. She loved her work because of you! She valued connecting with each and every one of you and your pets in a meaningful and important way.
She knew your names, your pets - of course, but also your kids and your parent’s names. She remembered where your kids were in school and what sport they played. She loved to talk with you about what you were making for dinner - that was her absolute favorite subject.
Erin was an excellent cook and exceptional baker. One year she got on a baking kick. She woke at 5 am to cook and brought in warm muffins with little dishes of butter and jam in a beautiful basket amoung other insanely good things. All our scrubs got a bit too snug. We had to beg her to please stop with these irresistible treats or we would all become enormous. She begrudgingly relented.

We will truly miss our beloved friend.

It is with profound sadness that we share with you the passing of our dear friend and colleague Erin Cleary. She has left us far too early.

Her loss leaves a void that is deeply felt. She was not just our team member - she was family. To many at Best Friends she was a sister, a mother, and a dear friend always offering a listening ear, a warm embrace and unwavering support.

Erin was a dedicated and compassionate professional going above and beyond for our clients and their beloved pets. Her twelve years of hard work, kindness and care has made a lasting impact on all of us.

We will deeply miss her. She will remain always in our hearts.
