Among other ventures in life, I owned and managed Adare Manor Resort and Golf Club in Limerick, Ireland for 27 years. I say this to establish my credentials in the field of hospitality. It gives me great pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for my good friend, Brooke Sweetser. We have known each other for years personally and in her capacity as Events Manager for the Abacoa Golf Club. When my wife of 60 years passed in 2021, Brooke oversaw the reception after the funeral. Her kindness and care reflected the relationship she and my wife and I enjoyed for many years prior. I would have trusted no one else to the task. More recently, I sponsored a one-hundreth Birthday party for a fellow Marine. Again, Brooke and her team rose to the ocassion with style and class. The event included the Commandant of the Marine Corps and the Marine Corps Band. It was a flawless celebration, noted by all 160 in attendance. I can offer no higher accolade than Brooke is a consummate professional. Her leadership reflects her personality, experience and leadership skills. Whatever, the task, I am certain that Brooke will deliver the results. I treasure our friendship and wish Brooke the very best going forward. If I can be of any further assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to me.

Respectfully & cheerfully,
