There are inadequate words available to express the profound loss of our beloved husband, father, brother, godfather, cousin, friend: Dr. Douglas G. Brooks. He lived his life as a servant of Christ, and demonstrated his deep faith each day of his life. He was a humble man who enjoyed his daily coffee and caring for his patients, but his greatest earthly treasure was in his role as husband to Chris and father to Caroline, Jonathan, and Drew. And what an exceptional job he did in that role. His wisdom, caring, and tremendous love will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
We don’t understand God’s decision to call him home so soon, but we rejoice in his being made new again as he sits at the throne of Grace in Heaven, with our Savior Jesus Christ. We look forward to the day we will be reunited with him in Heaven. We love you and miss you more than we will ever be able to express.
“And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. To Him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen.” 1 Peter 5:10-11
The family will be holding a private funeral service that will be live-streamed for those who wish to watch.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the family church in the name of Dr. Douglas G. Brooks.
