Chuck was one of my best friends and a neighbor while we were in veterinary school together. (The stories I could tell!) So sorry to hear of Chuck´s passing; my condolences to the family for your loss.

We were honored to have Dr. Kidder as a patient in our practice. His kindness, wisdom, and gentle spirit touched everyone here. We always enjoyed his four legged friends that always accompanied him. He will be deeply missed, and we are keeping his family and loved ones in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Your friend, Dr. Teresa Dawahare Lyon, DMD.
