David H. Kerr 15 Winsor Place Glen Ridge, NJ 07028 September 12, 2016 dkerr.recoveryadvisorygroup@gmail.com Recommendation for: Stephen Payne, VP of Finance at Integrity House, Newark for over 20 years Date: September 12, 2016 From: David H. Kerr, Founder and CEO of Integrity Inc. from 1968 to retirement in 2012. Steve worked for Integrity house for nearly 23 years from 1990 to 2013. He was a valuable asset to our corporation with a balanced steadiness in maintaining and building our finances for our not-for-profit corporation. He was highly respected by the State of NJ Drug Division. From time to time they would confront us about their interpretation of a financial issue but in the end, they found that we were always right. Their audits grew shorter and shorter due their trust in Mr. Payne and in me. As he says in his resume:
Peter Lehing
Steve is objective, balanced, and always had the best interests of the organization in mind. This translated to the individual employee receiving treatment as well.
