Sorry for your lose, my prays and thoughts are with you and your family.

I am so sorry for your loss, a Dad is so hard to lose, may all your memories help you all thru this difficult time. May his love for you all turn into strength to help guide you.

We are thinking of you and remembering the good times at the Jeffersonian Apts.  Jack and Barbara Mallichek

Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.

A great man is one who leaves others at a loss after he is gone. 

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

I don't really know what else to say so I just put some quotations that I feel apply to John.

I am very sorry to hear about the loss of such a special man.  I loved working with Mr. Brooks (UGA).
My thoughts and prayers are with his family. 

-Kathy (Hood) Simmons

Mrs. Brooks, Steve, Sue and Family & Linda, Mike and Family;  Ricky and I are so saddened to hear the news of Mr. Brooks.  Know that although we are not there in Athens we are in our hearts.  We are thinking about you all every minute.  I have had the pleasure of being around Steve's family at many family gatherings-good times and sad times.  They have always been so supportive and Mr. Brooks was a very sweet kind man.  God Bless and Love to all.

I'm going to miss John.  He was one of my first clients at UGA, and over the years we became a lot more than that.  He was always fun to talk to.  He was a great provider and his concern for his family was highest on his list of priorities.  I modeled some of my own planning from him.  I wish his family all the best.

To Mary and family our deepest sympathies.  I worked with John for almost 30 yrs and he was a good man and I appreciated all he did for me.

Dear Sue and beloved family of the late Mr. Brooks,
     We offer our deepest sympathies and lift your family in our thoughts and prayers.We prayed for all of you at our daily employee devotion. May God keep and protect Mrs. Brooks and may she find comfort in the love of both God and her family. With love, Elizabeth Camilli and Mary Berg, RN, Sacred Journey Hospice, Inc.

To the family of John Brooks May God smile on your family as you go through this time of sorrow.
I was a part of the welding shop that he ran for 18 years, and I learn a great deal from him.
God Bless

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