The Extra Mile Award was introduced in 2000 to acknowledge an agent, driver or corporate employee of Wheaton | Bekins who performs the extraordinary every day. In 2011, the award was renamed the Stephen F. Burns Extra Mile Award in honor of the company’s Chairman of the Board. Award winners’ attributes include unselfish contributions to the Wheaton | Bekins system and adherence to the company’s mission and values: Treat everyone honestly, fairly and professionally.
“Going the extra mile seems to come naturally for Val,” said Wheaton | Bekins CEO Mark Kirschner. “Her positive attitude, work ethic and expertise serve as an example to those who would succeed in the moving industry. We’re fortunate to have her on the Wheaton | Bekins team.”
