Thank you for your letter. We first want to emphasize that Hilton Hotels Corporation is deeply grateful for the service, sacrifice and devotion of our troops and their families.
Our business relationship with Fran O’Brien’s has come to an end effective May 1, 2006, due to their refusal to pay rent and make necessary improvements in order to comply with the terms of their lease.
We fully support our troops and have offered to host and sponsor the dinners moving forward. We recognize and salute the sacrifices of our men and women in uniform and will continue to demonstrate our gratitude to them.
Sincerely,
Brian Kelleher
General Manager
Capital Hilton Hotel
Brian,
Your behavior regarding Fran O'Brien's, according to the sources I've been following, is worse than despicable. Your statements on the issue have been so opaque that I can only believe those sources, who offer credible details from multiple witnesses. If the Capital Hilton Hotel were to remove you today as General Manager, it would be far from enough to satisfy me that Hilton Corporation had seen the light, but it would be a small step in the right direction. Your hypocrisy is breathtaking. Your behavior completely belies your words. You have demonstrated conclusively that Hilton Hotels Corporation is deeply contemptuous of the service, sacrifice and devotion of our troops and their families.
You ended your business relationship with Fran O'Brien's effective May 1, 2006, because renewing their lease would commit you to the necessary improvements in order to comply with the terms of Americans with Disabilities Act. Your stiffing them on unpaid room service charges was more than enough reason for them to tell you to use that debt to offset their rent. Your pretexts are as transparent as your details are opaque.
Your attempt to host and sponsor the dinners moving forward is a transparent effort to cloak yourself in the goodwill they created by innovatively support our troops. You trying to steal their ideas while throwing them in the street is what really disgusts me, even more than your despicable hypocrisy and your despicable treatment of the disabled in general and disabled veterans in particular. You are beneath contempt.
You are so far from recognizing and saluting the sacrifices of our men and women in uniform, you are so far from demonstrating your gratitude to them, that Hilton Hotels might never be able to air out the stench from your stay with them.
Most sincerely,
Mark White
