A Fond Farewell
|
As many of you know, today (June 30th) is Doris Reed's, ASASP’s Executive Director, last day as she decided to retire (and yes, she’s actually going through with it). Doris has spent the last 31 years putting a lot of time, effort, blood, sweat and tears (most likely not her own) into building and ensuring ASASP is a strong labor force to be reckoned with. She has successfully represented and served ASASP’s members with fierceness and unwavering dedication on all fronts, most noticeably at the negotiating table.
To say it has been an honor working for and learning from Doris over the years would be understatement. We will continue to do our very best to serve our members, just as Doris has for so many years, and carry on her legacy. Her leadership, guidance and friendship have been a blessing to us all and she will be greatly missed in the office. |
ASASP Staff: Veronica Matherne (Office Manager), Hugh Weathers (Membership Director), Doris Reed (Executive Director) and David Dzidzienyo (Member Services Specialist).
