To the Washington State Veterinary Community and our Valued Clients

It is with heavy hearts that we regrettably inform you, Dr. Kimberly Coyner, DVM, DACVD, tragically and suddenly passed away in a fatal car accident on January 15, 2022. Her loving and faithful husband, Marc Coyner, passed away a few days thereafter.

Dr. Coyner was so many things.  A genius was just the first and most noticeable thing she was.  But while it was to many the most striking of her qualities, she used that incredible intelligence for so much more than the pursuit of knowledge.  She was an advocate for those who did not have a voice because she believed in the good in the world, even when it was hard to see and when little had been afforded to her.  She appreciated the beauty in the world and took every moment that she could to explore and soak in its beauty.

Mr. Coyner was a teacher at Washington Middle School and truly one of the kindest souls on this planet. He was Dr. Coyner’s number one supporter and was often contributing behind the scenes. When you talked to Marc you knew he legitimately cared and was interested in your conversation and your wellbeing.  He was engaging, easy to laugh, and was excited by knowledge.  He was generous with his time, resources, and most importantly, his love.

While deeply grieving their passing, the Coyner’s family and associates are determined to continue Dr. Coyner’s legacy. Dr. Coyner’s practice, Dermatology Clinic for Animals, remains active and continues to serve the Washington State community.

Thank you for your support during this shocking and difficult time. Dr. Coyner’s associate, Danielle

Wyatt, DVM, DACVD, and dermatology resident, Dr. Danielle Tulloss, DVM, DACVPM, remain available

for consultations, questions, and continued care of Dr. Coyner’s beloved patients.
