I WORKED WITH MR PEELEN SINCE 1983 WHEN I
WAS HIRED AT THE INTERCONTINENTAL N Y BARCLAY. HE WAS A GREAT G.M. AND WAS WELL RESPECTED BY ALL. EVEN WHEN HE LEFT THE HOTEL HE WOULD CALL BACK FOR VARIOUS REQUESTS AND SAY HIS FAMOUS WORDS
"PEELEN HERE" AND HE WOULD ALWAYS GET ME ANSWERING THE PHONE AND WOULD SAY TO ME "JENNY ARE YOU STILL WORKING THERE" I WOULD SAY YES MR PEELEN THERE IS NO WHERE ELSE I'D RATHER BE AND HE WOULD
LAUGH. HE WILL BE MISSED BY ALL OF US
IT WAS A PLEASURE TO KNOW HIM

Many fond memories when Mr. Peelen used to visit at the Paris Inter-Continental in the 70's and 80's. To come to New York and be greeted by him after my immigration to the US was always fun and he made me feel like a long-lost sister. A great hotelier

I worked at the Inter-Continental Hotel New York, the Barcaly as his, Director of Catering from 1982 to 1989. I started my career under his guidance and learned the art of service and attention to detail through
hs eyes. Though, as a GM, FGP could be very tough, he softend his approach
by also taking care of his department heads as only he could.
His sense of style in everthing he did became our standard, seeing the hotel through his eyes was the premise by which we all operated. The hotel industry has changed over the years,I am glad I learned from one the the task masters of the industry. Farwell FGP
