Mayris was the best property manager I’ve known after decades of renting. Always smiling and her compassion to others was something I strive to be. So sorry to hear about her passing. My condolences to Ed and children.
Mayris collaborated with other housing providers to provide the best management for her clients (the tenants). Mayris and I confirmed from time-to-time on best practices for addressing tenant issues. Mayris was always considerate to the residents at the properties she served as well as the owners of those properties to provide the best outcome to difficult rental travails. I miss the collaboration with Mayris. Condolences to Ed Reed.
Mayris was my mother’s friend and especially kind and thoughtful to her and me. When Westgate was taken over by new management, contact was lost. But I often thought about her thoughtfulness. RIP. The world has lost a good soul. So sorry for the family’s loss.
