To Nita and family, I was very sad to hear of Paul´s passing. I have wonderful memories working for you both. You taught me so much about work ethic and together demonstrated to me what a great working partnership could be. You always made time for people and would always go that extra mile to make guests feel comfortable. I will never forget Paul´s cheeky sense of humour- he always managed to make me laugh.
