Photo is the Brooks family & us seeing each other at Doe Doe's Resturant in St. Petersburg, Fla,  just after Alan & I arrived from North Carolina  to spend the winter here. 2019.  My husband Alan grew up near the Brook's family in Seminole area.  What a joy to see them each year when we visit.  Love to each of you.  Loved dancing with Mr. Brooks on his 95th birthday !!!  Miss him too.  Love and God bless.

This is the last photo of us with Mr. Brooks. We always enjoyed visiting with him when we come to Florida. Since I grew up as a neighbor in Seminole we go back almost 60 years. Was great to reconnect with him. My wife loved him from the minute she met him. We will miss you. 

These pictures are symbolic to me as...Dad clears his path by sweeping leaves off his driveway(Thanking everyone for what they have done for him)...he stops to rest for just a moment and takes it all in (Giving us all a chance to say our goodbyes)...then, knowing that we'll be ok...he throws us a kiss goodbye...until we meet again.
I Love you Dad...and Thank You for being The gentle, thoughtful, honest person you were❤️ you will be missed dearly❤️.

My second home through high school.  I never saw dad get angry or upset after a long day and come home to a house full of kids.  Mom was the same. They were there for me in a time that I couldn't let my family in  . Loved them both dearly.  Know dad is in a happier place and with mom . Prayers for the family. 

Papa, we will miss you dearly, I am so grateful I was able to introduce my son, your very first great great grandson! I know you're happy to be back with grandma, we love you so very much! Rest easy papa. 
Love Jaxon and Joanna 

Grandpa
Thank you for the time you have given the family.  Always a hard worker a great inspiration for us. Glad my kids were able to be part of your life and enjoy spending time with you.  You always brought a smile to all of our faces. After all these years you finally get to be with grandma again.
I guess I’ll have to mess with uncle Danny now !
Love David (little David) the oldest and favorite grandson !! 😀

 To the Brooks family including his daughters his sons his grandchildren and his great grandchildren your grandpa loves you all dearly he was an awesome man and he lived a great life our prayers and thoughts are with you and we’re very sorry for your loss. 

Great Grandpa Brooks, 
You were so loved by so many people, friends and family. The whole room would fill with laughter and Joy when you were around. It will be very sad no longer celebrating your birthdays at Indian rocks beach hotel. Or seeing my dad David picking on you. You loved that so much for some odd reason.  But I know you are happy up there with your beloved wife. Fly high you two. It’s nice to know we will all have a guardian angel watching over us all. You are loved. 

Dad, we love you, and we will miss you dearly, I am so happy you are with Mom now, I know she was the love of your life!
  I was lucky enough to have 2 very special parents, May God Bless you and until we meet again, Your loving Daughter 
                                                      Debi

Grandpa, you will be dearly missed, we love you so much. But I am happy you are finally with Grandma and I am sure she is happy to see you. 
So try to keep everyone straight, "Till we meet again"

Love
Josh (a.k.a your favorite Grandson)
