During my last five years with the Maricopa County Assessor's Office as the Mobile Homes Unit supervisor, Dave and I worked together on numerous projects and to resolve taxpayer concerns on many occasions. I've heard him referred to as a consummate professional, a caring and reasonable minded public servant , a man who made it a point to treat people fairly and respectfully. 
I cannot find fault with any of those statements. Dave was consistent and focused on obtaining appropriate and workable solutions to each challenge we faced together.
 We didn't always agree, but I respected his opinion and point of view. Dave was accessible, honest and straightforward. You knew where you stood with him.
I enjoyed our association and will miss you, David.

My sincerest condolences to Dave's family on the loss of this extraordinary man.

Dave was one of the most helpful people I ever worked with and extremely intelligent and knowledgeable about his work.  He was always easy to work with and went out of his way to assist in any manner that he could.  Dave will be missed by many who had the opportunity to work with him and he will be missed for his good sense of humor and as a wonderful human being.

I had the pleasure of working for Dave for 24 yrs. All of the knowledge he had was unthinkable. He was a major asset to The Treasurer's Office he taught me a lot always told me don't stress there isn't anything you can do that we can't fix so don't be so hard on yourself. Very passionate man in everything he did. My thoughts and prayers go out to Mary and Audrey.

My father had the utmost respect and admiration for Dave. I'm glad I had the opportunity to get to know Dave too. I will never forget his wisecracks or how he would keep me grounded. I always looked forward to picking Dave's brain on issues ranging from property tax or life in general. He was one of a kind and I will miss him.

Dave was a character and lived life on his own terms. If you ever needed help or had a question on property tax, you went to Dave.  He could always be counted on to give a direct answer and leave out the political garbage. I learned a lot from him.

I was so surprised to hear that David passed on to the great beyond.  His parents and my husband and I had been friends for over 40 years. When I spoke to Audrey last week to inform her of Bob's death, I found out that David had passed away on Mother's Day.  To say I was shocked would be putting it mildly. Such a nice kid and he spent time at our home when we lived in Phoenix and he and Bob played golf together. I guess they are playing golf now, laughing and joking in heaven. Condolences to Mary and his sweet Mama Audrey. RIP David.

Thank you Dave for your service to our county. You will be missed.
My prayers and sincere sympathy go out to your family and friends. May they find comfort in the memories.

Dave will be in our hearts forever.  Dennis still talks about them getting their bikes together and their weekly guys night out.  So many riding stories will be told over and over in many years to come.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you Mary.

Dennis & Denise Marking

I will miss you my friend. We played alot of golf, rode our Harleys and enjoyed many a Steeler's game together. My heart goes out to Mary....see you on the first tee in the future.

Dave was our "go-to guy" for all questions related to taxes and untangling complex concerns from constituents related to their taxes.  He was always cheerful, candid and helpful.  We will miss him very much -

I worked with Dave in the Treasurer's office at the beginning of my 17 years with the county. He was on my interview panel and I'm sure it was his input that lead to a job offer. Despite his occasional gruff exterior, the twinkle in his eye was all it took to make me smile.  My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Dave was a great boss!  I worked for Dave for 8 years and started at Treasurer office at 19.  I owe my career to him as he taught me everything I know.  He was my mentor who became my friend even after I left the office.  I would often ask his opinion on life questions and he always had an insightful and sometimes interesting response. 

My thoughts are with Mary,  Audrey, family and friends during this time.

My condolences and prayers to the Browning family.

Although Dave and I had never worked together, I would chat with him from time to time at the west entrance of the County Admin Building.  We usually talked about Harley's and riding :)  Often I would simply rush by Dave, as I'm always in a hurry.  He would wave and smile (much like he is in this photo).  He was such a nice guy.  I'm so sorry for your loss.  My prayers go out to all of his family and friends.  He will be greatly missed here at Maricopa County.

I worked with Dave for more than 23 years and appreciate his humor and insights. He was a great help on all tax related problems. He will be greatly missed by everyone.

I have had the pleasure of working with Dave in the Treasurer's Office for the last 28 years.  He was a very knowledgeable, caring individual.  He was also a great boss.

Mr. Browning can never be replaced.  You will be missed.

My deepest sympathies to Audrey and Mary.

The citizens of Maricopa County were very fortunate to have a dedicated public servant like Dave Browning looking out for their interest.  Dave was strongly pro-taxpayer, and went to great lengths to provide each citizen the best of service.  His efforts greatly enhanced the image of the County Treasurer's Office and Maricopa County Government. He was an effective top manager and a valuable member of my senior staff.  I will miss him as a good friend and co-worker.  Charles Hos Hoskins, Maricopa County Tresurer.

Deaths of our friends leaves us with a heartache no one can heal.  My memories of David will be a treasure I will never
lose.  In my working career, David was
a delight and a very unique guy.  In our lifetime, we occassionaly are blessed and fortunate to cross paths with a person such as David.  I will certainly always remember him. My 
prayers to his family and many friends.
Senator Todd said it correctly, trumpets are sounding. Now Heaven as received another Angel.  God Bless you

RIP Mr. Browning, you will be missed by so many and you will remain in our hearts forever. What a wonderful person, you touched so many lifes. I am so blessed to have had the pleasure of meeting you. Ride high Mr. Browning.

Dave will be sadly missed by his office family.  Dave had a brilliant mind and had a vast knowledge of the property tax system, and the statutes that govern what we do here at the Treasurer's office.  Dave always spoke lovingly of his wife, Mary, and of his mother, Audrey, as well as of his beloved pets.  Audrey's example of working during retirement years was one of his favorite topics of conversation of how long he wanted his employees to continue on here.  A great boss and a genuinely good man who will always have a place in our hearts.  With deepest sympathy to Mary and Audrey.  Charlotte Stevens, Tempe, AZ

Where to begin?  Deepest sympathy and prayers to your family and to your work family at the Treasurer's office.  David was the consummate public servant, and a dear friend.  He solved problems with never a hesitation or complaint.  As Mr. Todd said, we were so lucky and blessed to have him in our lives.  He will be surely missed, not only for his professional knowledge, but as a dear friend.  Rest in peace,my friend.  Hopefully, we will see you down the road.

My deepest sympathy to the family and friends.
"Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day....unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear."   
I'm glad I got the chance to work with you Mr. Browning. Thank you!

Dave was a long time associate of the  treasurers office that handled his job with great care.  He was also glad to join me for the annual ASU college of business  golf tournament.  I am thankful for all he did.

I'm sending Dave's family prayers of peace and comfort and thanking God for letting Dave Browning be part of my life for those 12 years.  His passing leaves a big hole in our lives and I will remember him with lots of love.  May he rest in peace for the sound of trumpets.

RIP Mr. B, you will be missed each & every day.  My heart is breaking for both your family and your work family.  You will never be forgotten or replaced in our hearts.  With much respect for a great boss & friend.

Betty and I offer our deepest sympathy to Dave's family.
Betty enjoyed working with Dave for over 25 years at the at the Treasurer's Office. May God be with you in these times.

My deepest sympathy. As a vendor to the county for many years, Dave was my primary contact. Dave's wit and intelligence made even the most difficult project a pleasure.

Prayers to you for strength at this time, I had the priveledge of working with Dave back at 111 S 3rd Ave to the present. He was always at his best when you brought him a challenge. R.I.P. my friend.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.
