Paul O'Neill

I thought that Paul had a lot of money and had some type of impressive residence in Tampa.  Why did he end up at an Embassy Suites in Tampa if that is the case?

Good question - the hotel he was checked into was six miles from his home.  

Here is the official obituary from Legacy.com: http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/theledg...=185086093

Interestingly, they mention solitary weeks in hotel rooms: 

Those who knew Paul were aware of his ongoing battles with his health and his propensity to overwork himself while in the midst of creative projects. From the solitary weeks in a hotel while working in his Florida studio to jumping around on a pyro-filled stage, or flying around the country on no sleep (aggravating his chronic spine problems from a past back surgery).
