This past Saturday, Geraldine Thornton celebrated her 30-year anniversary as an employee with the Richmond SPCA. The longest serving member of our staff, Geraldine is known throughout these halls as a hard worker, a knowledgeable animal care advocate, and a true lover of pets. Following high school, Geraldine (known to everyone here as “Ms. Gee”) was interested in pursuing a career working with animals. While everyone else she encountered was looking for work in the business world, Geraldine’s love of dogs and cats and her talent for working with them led her to take a job at the Richmond SPCA. And here she has stayed! Our staff and volunteers are so thankful for her many years of service, and we’re looking forward to celebrating many more anniversaries with Ms. Gee!
Congratulations to Ms. Gee, she is awesome! She is one of the reasons I know my decision to volunteer with the SPCA was the right one.
