Employee Directory

A business is only as good as the people who work there. The following is our cast of characters:

Corbett, Doug

      

Doug seems like a soft spoken and quiet young man, but that's before he gets started! He's a student at Ramapo College and a very hard-working part timer. He's been with us since 2005.

Faber, Doug

Doug has been working for us part time since 2004. He just graduated from Ramapo College. A personable, hard-working young man, he currently works part time as an emergency dispatcher and hopes to have a career in fire fighting or police work. It doesn't hurt that his father is a retired Glen Rock policeman.

Felt, Dave

Dave is one of our newer employees. A student at Bergen Community College, he drives a 1965 Dodge Dart. Not surprisingly his nickname is "Dartman." For such a young man, he has had an amazing number of part time jobs. Name a store/eatery in the area, and there's a good chance he'll say, "Oh I used to work there." Some people just can't keep a job!

Fulton, Dave 

Dave is one of our newest employee. He graduated Ramapo College in 2005 and now works for a local company that administers government grants and applications. We found him carrying a sign that said, "Will Work for Coronas," so we knew he was our kind of guy. Dave is our most eligible bachelor.

Hamlin, Sean

Sean has been with Beekmans part time since 1995. He works for the Village of Ridgewood full time. His wine knowledge and appreciation were greatly enhanced when he completed an introductory wine course in 1998 and a Sommelier course in 2002. Sean is as dedicated as he is knowledgeable. He is also the one to ask if you have any beer or tequila questions. After his wedding, Sean spent his honeymoon, where else? At a chateau in Bordeaux! Sean and his wife just had their first child (Eden).

Karger, Barry

Barry has been with us since 1999. He has a reputation as our resident wine "geek." An English professor by day and wine lover by night, Barry is enthusiastic about wine as well as educating and serving our customers. His motto is: "Can we help?"

McIntosh, Dave

David celebrates 40 years of working for Beekman Wines and Liquors this year! Dave was born in Glen Rock and graduated from Glen Rock High School. After serving two years in the U.S. Army, he  began working for Beekmans in May of 1968 as a stock clerk and delivery person. Today Dave is the store manager. With his outgoing personality and literally life long association with Glen Rock, Dave is known by almost everyone in town. He is our "go to" guy whenever there is a problem or a question. He is also the one to ask about what's happening in town. Knowledgeable and committed to helping customers, Dave personifies the Beekman spirit.

Mitchel, Joel

Joel has been "Mr. Wine" at Beekmans since 1986. A licensed Sommelier, he teaches the introductory wine course that we offer, writes the monthly newsletter, and can be blamed for this web site. He also directs a wine tasting group in the area. His motto is: "I don't care about the label on the bottle; I care about the quality inside."

Mitchel, Stanley & Bernice

  

Affectionately called Sam Q. Beekman, Stan founded our store back in 1956. The woman behind (or next to) the man is his wife, Bernice. People often ask how we got our name. The answer is that in the early 1950s Stan and a partner bought a liquor store in Englewood, N.J. The seller had named the Englewood store "Beekmans" because he lived on Beekman Place in Manhatten. Stan and his partner kept the name and extended it to the new store they bought in Glen Rock. Eventually the partnership was dissolved, with Stan taking the Glen Rock store. (The Englewood store still bears the name, although it has had several owners since then.) Stan is retired now and lives in Florida, but he calls frequently to offer advice and check up on the rest of us. His motto is: "Thank you for flying Beekmans!"

Picone, Drew

Drew is a personable and very hard working college student. He must not get much sleep, for he finds time to work in his father's woodworking business as well as with us. He's been with us since 2005.

Ramos, Matt

Matt is our newest employee. A freshman in college, he has a surprising amount of work experience. He is a hard-working addition to the Beekman staff.

Ritter, Bonnie

        

Bonnie is our unsung heroine. She is responsible for bookkeeping, payroll, and numerous other unseen and under-appreciated jobs. She also does our statement mailings for charge account customers as well as our monthly newsletter mailing.
