Mrs. Brooks - Howard always hung out at Hull Street Auto Mart, whom my dad Jack C. Brooks owned. My dad past away 06/16/03. He always talked about Howard, we called him "Brooks." I remember being a young girl and seeing Howard sitting in the chair at my dads office all the time. I am sorry to hear about your loss, he was a great man.

Mrs. Brooks:
I was sorry to hear of Mr. Brooks homegoing however: thats what he has been working on was getting his home ready so when the time did come he would be ready. Having worked with him and watched the way you all loved each other and cared for each other was blessed. You were a loving and good wife and God saw that: Continue to keep your hands in God's hand and he will always keep you up!!! I love you and thank God I had the opportunity to work with Mr. Brooks.
