Wine Tasting Saturday April 5, 1:00pm - 4:00pm & Saying Goodbye :(

 Today, Saturday April 5th, 2012, marks Gregory Woods last day of employment with Harry's Wine & Liquor Market. 

Saying Goodbye to (Uncle) Greg is not an easy thing to do, he has been a well liked wine staff member and a manager for this store since beginning his employment with us in 2010. Simply put, Greg has been a pleasure to have on staff and we were lucky to have him as long as we did. 

Now it is time for him to graduate from our ranks and step in to the next chapter of his professional career. Although his palate, good nature and hard work will be missed by all of us but we could not be happier for him as he gets a great opportunity that we can say with confidence, he has most assuredly earned. Greg is moving on to be a Manager and Buyer at 109 Cheese & Wine  in Ridgefield just down the road from his home. In our humble opinion, this store is very fortunate to be getting such a strong employee and will benefit greatly from his presence. 

Sometimes things just work right for someone and their life and in this case we believe that the move that he is making is good for everyone involved (maybe not so good for us). He will now be part of our graduated class and we are proud to say that he will always be a part of our history and alumni. 

If you have an opportunity today, please stop by and say goodbye and offer him well wishes and great success. He will be working until 4:00pm and I am sure he would appreciate it.
