Last week my family and I celebrated my son’s birthday at Salvadore Park. During the setup for the party, I was approached by employee Matthew Gonzlez to ask if we needed any assistance. He was professional, courteous and friendly. He checked in repeatedly with our birthday group to ensure everything was to our liking and proactively cleaning up the pavilion trash bins as needed.

During the reminder of the day, I observed Matthew to be very attentive to all the patrons of the park, constantly on the move actively keeping the park clean and accessible for all. He made my family’s birthday celebration enjoyable and worry-free. Because of employees like Matthew and his welcoming nature, it keeps me wanting to come back over and over to enjoy the beautiful parks of Coral Gables.

It is employees like Matthew that make the park going experience in Coral Gables so special and welcoming. Employees like Matthew often go unnoticed but I would like to take this opportunity to celebrate the hard work and dedication of Matthew.
