5. Recommendation Letter:
To whom it may concern,
It has been my pleasure to have worked with Ms. Natalia Ribeiro at the Sunrise Assisted Living property
“Brighton Gardens”, and Independent Living “Stratford Court”, Boca Raton, for over four years now.
Her duties as Executive Dining Manager called upon her to be both liaison to the residents as well as
coordinator for all back of house functions and needs.
She kept an articulate record of all in and out of house transactions as well as designed several programs to
assist with current company policies.
She has conducted herself and her job functions with a level of grace and professionalism that is rare in a large
portion of hospitality industry these days. Her genuine concern for our residents and their well being was a
major source of pride to our staff.
She leaves solely to further her career and hospitality knowledge at college and I wish her nothing but success
and prosperity in her future!
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me or any representative of Stratford Court, Boca Raton.
Sincerely,
Mr. Richard Tournesy, Executive Director,
Stratford Court Assisted Living.
