It is with great sadness that I write this: Phil Carey passed away yesterday afternoon after a three year valiant fight with cancer. He was a light in my life around the studio. A big man, with a big heart that hated the idea that he had such a big heart. It is amazing to lose Clint Richie and Phil Carey in the same week, and yet I don’t think they would have wanted it any other way. I just hope they both end up in the same place or there will be Hell to pay….literally. Phil’s presence on the show is still palpable and will always be felt. I miss him. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
 
Phil rest; the fight is over; you can go home now.
I love you,
Hillary

I am saddened by the news of Clint Ritchie’s passing. I had the honor of working with him long after I became a die-hard fan of his work. He was a tender-hearted soul wrapped up in a tough cowboy exterior. He smiled with a naughty twinkle, would pass you in the hall with a wink and a pinch and lived his life with an uncontained passion. What a guy! Here’s to you, Clint!


Dear Fans,

There are many traits I respect and admire within each of you, one of which consists of your wonderfully generous spirit. You have steadfastly supported me in my professional life as well as in numerous charitable endeavors, and I have been overwhelmed by your generosity throughout the years.  Your thoughtfulness has brought a smile to my face countless times and I consider myself blessed to know each and every one of you.

 

My good friend Lindsay Harrison and I co-founded an endowment for the CA-based Sherman Oaks Veterinary Group some years ago. The fund was created to honor the memory of our beloved pets, and to assist other pet owners who were struggling to provide care for their furry friends in the event that their veterinary expenses grew monumental or overwhelming. While nothing can ease the pain of losing a beloved pet, there is great satisfaction in assisting fellow pet owners in need.

Everyone has been deeply impacted by the current economy, and some of the hardest hit within our society at present are pet owners. In light of this, I wish to request a favor of you. I would be immensely grateful if, in lieu of gifts which you may send to me throughout the year, you would instead direct your contributions to this endowment fund so that others may benefit from your thoughtful generosity. Contributions should be made payable to Sherman Oaks Veterinary Hospital and sent to:

                                            Sherman Oaks Veterinary Group
                                          ATTN: Jan, The Willie-Coppee Fund
                                                   13624 Moorpark Street
                                                 Sherman Oaks, CA 91423

 
Alternatively, you can visit the Willie-Coppee Fund website for other ways to contribute.

 

Lindsay will routinely forward me a list of the names and addresses of those who donate to the fund, so please know that your contribution will not go unnoticed.  You will definitely be hearing from me!

 

All My Love,

Hillary
