Asa is a man of his word - you can always depend on what he says, and you can always trust him to fulfill his responsibilities to the best of his ability.  He is good working one-on-one with others, but he is also good with groups - friendly, cooperative, and likable - a leader and a diligent worker, always committed to the task at hand.

Asa was involved in the community and was a quintessential volunteer.  Rarely, could you go to an event and not see Dr. Brown contributing in a variety of ways.  I will truly miss his dedication, professionalism, and positive work ethic.
